I have test equipment with optically isolated RS232 ports. Seems modern RS232 ports do not support +/-12V. They all seem to be less than +/-8V, many only +/-5V. Anybody know of a cheap source for +/-12V RS232 PCI serial boards? What ever happened to 1488/1489 serial drivers?

Does anyone know of a way to put an rs232 ascii data stream onto an i2c bus as a slave device. For example, I have an i2c bus which has a master already. I need to give this master the data which is coming from an rs232 device, the problem is that all the rs232 to i2c converters I've seen are masters which assume it'll be plugged into a PC. I assume that I need to convert levels with a M...

I often work on small electronic devices that communicates over a multi-drop half-duplex two-wires RS485 network. I usually try to compile all the projects for the developing Windows machine (I use mingw as the compiler). Simulating and mimic the hardware in some way. The best simulation for the RS485 is a typical RS232 port with a RS232-RS485 attached (actually it is a very cheap USB-...

I am developing a product that requires a serial port to transfer a few bytes of data to a host pc on a repetitive basis. Currently using 115kbaud on an RS232 port on my board and that works fine. A little slower is ok too. Some feedback has indicated that a USB port would be an attractive alternative. Someone commented that a "chip" for USB is about the same expense as RS232. I have zer...

Hi, I am using Rabbit development board which has separate ports for RS232 and Rs485. Right now i am using a single port both as RS232 as well as RS485. The port works fine for RS232 signals but for RS485 signals, the differential output is not proper.I think there is some problem with the differential voltages. Please help.

Hi all, I have an idea to try and transmit live video camera data over one RS232 (either Tx or Rx) line. The problem is that I don?t know how to go about processing the camera data. If the camera data was transmitted over an i2c bus, then this would be possible (as per http://www.gedanken.demon.co.uk/rs232-converters/i2c.html) but I?m not sure whether cameras transmit pixel data over i2c.

What is the best method to have a PC and embedded MPU communicate with RS232? I have a HC08 that doesn't have SCI, so it would all have to be in software. There are probably ROM routines that would help but I haven't been able to find any documentation on them. This seems like it should be a "cut and paste" job. Maybe I have to code it myself. On the PC side I was thinking of using Visu...

I had originally planned to use RS232 at each end talking through a pair of 900 MHz Linx transceivers. Since this was to be a one-off prototype, I kind of ignored the regulatory issues. Now, I'm thinking that maybe I...
