#174443 - other ISR recommendation
Responding to: ???'s previous message
Joel Ward said:
I am simply asking the micro to set an ouput high, and poll (using a while loop) an input port pin until it returns low

Another recommendation is to never put a loop in an ISR.

I'd go with the timer interrupt as Erik suggested unless you need to wake up your mcu on a key press.
