Just to let you know, USB to RS-232 adapters are getting cheap enough that in some cases it is crazy to try to
make you own USB interface to your board. http://www.buyextras.com/usbtoserial.html I saw this posted on comp.arch.embedded, and went: hmmm. Now I see it here, verbatim. I call bullshit. Gary, what's your association with this "buyextras" website? Anyways: why make your end users go through the hassle of having an extra cable, or two, since USB allows devices to be self-powered and RS-232 doesn't. Let's not forget that even full-speed USB is a heckuva lot faster than serial. -a |
