Hello Forum,
I put together a simple guide to RS232, possibly to be used as reference to simple questions. I've done my best to include everything that might be needed, but I'm sure there is more. Would you check it out and let me know what you think. http://www.8052.com/users/jonled/RS232gd.pdf Thanks Jon Nicely done. A couple ideas: 1. Use MAX233 instead of MAX232. Four less capacitors are just that much less to wire, and for prototyping a single unit or experimenting, the cost difference is irrelevant. 2. Mention something about polled vs. interrupt driven I/O, the need for a ring buffer/FIFO and flow control in non-trivial applications. --Sasha Jevtic |
