#174973 - Distance? Multi-master?
Responding to: ???'s previous message
Few processors have 6 UART, so using a UART/link isn't so easy.

You haven't talked about the distance between the processors. And you haven't said anything about required transfer speeds. Or if you intend a communication star or if it must be possible for one 8052 to send information to another 8052 withut involving the 32-bit hub processor.

For short distances, I would probably consider SPI. In that case - make sure that all processors supports SPI in hardware since it isn't so fun to implement the slave side in software.

For longer distances, I would probably consider either RS-485 or maybe CAN.
