Hi All,
Does anyone know if the HCS12 has IrDA capabillities in the works??. I am looking for a all inclusive solution for my IrDA interface with my HC12. I dont seem to find a device that integrate at least the frontend(wave form shaper) with the pin diodes. Ideally I would have liked a blob with the IrDA stack, wave form shaper and the pin diodes all integrated in a nice small package.....8<)) I was looking at MircoChip IrDA stuff but have not made up my mind yet. The thing is that I would like to interface my Palm Zire21 (no serial ports) with only IrDA with my industrial equipment. I chose this device because it will be cheap for my customers to buy. Any suggestions from our experts Thanks Frank [Non-text portions of this message have been removed] |

Hi, Yes I noticed, this is a trick to get pass a demo program that expired.................... changing back and forth - I sometimes forget 8<)) Thanks Frank ----- Original Message ----- From: "Andrei Chichak" <> To: <> Sent: Thursday, January 22, 2004 11:55 AM Subject: Re: [68HC12] IrDA transceiver > Frank, > > Your clock is off by a year. > > Andrei > --------------------------------------------------------To learn more about Motorola Microcontrollers, please visit > http://www.motorola.com/mcu > o learn more about Motorola Microcontrollers, please visit > http://www.motorola.com/mcu |

Farnell; http://international3.farnell.com/FR/Publications/apps4pt2.pdf Don't know if you are stuck with a bit bunger or can use the serial functions from there. Keep us posted. Regards, Theo |

Hi, I guess yer right - go ahead sue me. The reason for doing it was unfortunate down loaded the demo.......installed it - got side tracked with something else and when I finally got back to the demo - it was expired and a tease popped up saying "TIME TO BUY!!!". Well, what was I supposed to do??? This is not exactly Kazaa paranoia - is it? I take it you were just teasing. Any case back to the real topic, what can you tell me about IrDA solutions for the HC12?

We have a S12 application interfaced to a CS8130 to do infrared serial comms. Includes firmware upgrades over IR. It's a nice if expensive chip. Very flexible. We are now migrating to 2.4GHz, with the newer chips no more difficult nor expensive to work with than infrared, and of course "pointing" is a thing of the past. An axample are some chips from Nordic.... single chip, no licencing, pcb track as antenna. Since Nordic don't have a discussion forum, I have started one... http://groups.yahoo.com/group/NordicRF/ There may have been a suggestion that M are coming out with packaged RF too - but I have no direct knowledge on this. bruce --- In , linktek <linktek@s...> wrote: > Any case back to the real topic, what can you tell me about IrDA solutions > for the HC12? > > Frank |

Hi, Well thanks man.... for the entusiastic response. So does Palm handheld come (standard) with 2.4GHz currently AS WE SPEAK?? My angle is from a simple Palm device. Since the designers for the Palm Zire in their wizdom dropped RS232 (long live RS!!!) for USB, the only other standard comms protocol is IrDA at this point - for a cheap .....cheap device. Yep, I know there is other Palm devices that would support RS232 wired, however they are much more expensive.

Try the MAX3100. It supports IrDA timing "out of the box" for a simple LED + photodiode application , but with two added inverters, it will also work with ready-made IrDA transceivers. We used to use the HSDL-1001 for one application, but it was discontinued some time ago. There are many other types made by e.g. Agilent and Vishay, and many others. Sam Laur |

The choices at 2.4GHz mirror the choices at infrared. You can have an IrDA stack, or use an IrDA chip at the physical layer only. Similarly with 2.4GHz, you can have a Bluetooth stack, or use a Bluetooth chip at the physical layer only (Nordic). The stack allows interoperability at high cost, whilst using devices as physical layer devices constrains interoperability, but is much cheaper (and generally faster) to develop - assumimg that you have control of both ends of the link. bruce ______________________________ --- In , linktek <linktek@s...> wrote: > Hi, > > Well thanks man.... for the entusiastic response.

I guess you can't get a driver for a USB-serial adaptor cable - n'est-ce pas? --- In , linktek <linktek@s...> wrote: Since the designers for the Palm Zire > in their wizdom dropped RS232 (long live RS!!!) > for USB, the only other standard comms protocol is IrDA at this point - for > a cheap .....cheap device. |

Well, what was I supposed to do??? ..call up or email the supplier, explain your situation and ask for an extension.

People who steal will steal no matter what. They are thieves and nothing more. Where is the moderator of this group? In theory, can Motorola be potentially liable if crack codes and whatnots are passed around on this mailing list?
