That is a valid point if you are building a one-off project. Your time is worth something. But if you plan to sell a million AA cell battery chargers using a 32-bit controller is uneconomical. These will always be a bigger market for 8-bit chips then for 32-bit chips. For an NTP server I'd go with something that can run an OS and the NTP reverence implementation. ARM (and others) can do that. -- Chris Albertson Redondo Beach, California _______________________________________________ time-nuts mailing list -- time-nuts@febo.com To unsubscribe, go to https://www.febo.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/time-nuts and follow the instructions there.
