;; Base on 'tailA.c'
;; Purpose:	An assembly to strobe the LEDsvia Port D.
;;		  The strobe rate is to be set by adjusting the voltage  
;;		  drop over a potentiometer that is sampled by an ADC
;;
;; A compared C code is followed by "--> " and before the assembly

;; List of all registers are defined in this code
;;------------------------------------------------;;
;; R18 --- 0xFF ---> DDRD
;; R19 --- ADCH & OCR1AL
;; R20 --- ADCH & OCR1AH
;; R21 --- TIFR
;; R22 --- ADMUX
;; R23 --- ADCSRA
;; R25 --- Pattern
;; R26 --- 0x00 ---> TCCR1A
;; R27 --- TCCR1B
