Hello I am working on a communication programme on PC which should work i the old DOS mode and am using Turbo'c'. The baudrate needed i 115200. How does one set this baud rate (bioscom does not support) the mother board is about three years old so I guess it may be havin 16550. Can any one suggest where I can get documentation on this IC I tried interrupt to receive and it works OK in win2...

Hi, I am doing the simulation for a system-on-chip project, the processor is PowerPC and in my code I have something like this, int main (void) { print("Hello \r\n"); print("ByeBye --\r\n"); return 0; } But in the simulator I can only see the "\r\n" after "Hello", I can not see it after "ByeBye --". Instead I see all are 0x8, which is BackSpace. I just wonder ...

I want to implement low cost rs485-connected data collection nodes, and need to choose a microcontroller for them that will support baud rates of more than say 400 kbps, preferably up to 1 mbps. I know there are some PIC18Fxxxx's that have an "Advanced UART" that are claimed do this. Other alternatives? - Chris

I have some experience programming in C on microcontrollers. On an upcoming project, I will be outputting data from the micro via UART. Someone else will write a Visual Basic program to read this data and display it on a PC. It will be a while before this program is ready. Before this is done, is there a way I can capture my data and look at it from the PC side, via something like Notepad, fo...

Hi. I have only one available UART on a micro but need to connect two serial devices (chips on the same board). Is there some type of chip that can be used that will accept two serial inputs and then I can use a GPIO pin to switch between the sources? The two serial sources need not be used together (meaning when one is being used, the other is not required). Thanks

I am bringing up my first ARM project (based on LM3S1439) and am looking for some advice. In my particular target application the processor will be communicating with several peripherals via SPI (2) and UART, maintaining a file system, keeping track of time and date as well as performing a lot of GPIO manipulation. The board is also designed with a few external communications ports so that future ...

I'm looking for a low cost solution to connect a TFT LCD at least 7" to the microcontroller by UART/SPI/I2C. I have to show only static graphic with touch operations. FT800 chip looks nice, but unfortunately it only supports a resolution up to 512x512, and 7" TFT has 800x480.

Hi everyone. Has anyone here used Chipcon transciever parts? I'm thinking about using the CC2500 or maybe the CC110 for a project and wanted to find out the pro/cons for these devices. Also, is anyone aware of a part in this class (embedded RF, SPI or UART interface) that can do 1 Mbps? Finally, how good do the PCB screened antennas work for indoor use, near and around computers?...

Hi - I was wondering, what microcontrollers are there out there that have FPUs? I'm working with a board that uses an Atmel AT91SAM7X256 (Atmel ARM uC with ARM7TDMI core), and it is perfect except for the lack of a FPU and maybe the max speed of 55Mhz. So what is available as a replacement? Ideally I'd like to see this: 32b FPU SPI (at least one) UART (at least two) TWI CAN timers...

Hey, I am trying to link the 5V serial port on my ADuC831 (8051) to the 3.3V serial port on my Analog Devices DSP board. Transmission is one way only (5V -> 3.3V). I have no idea what to do to drop the voltage. I read somewhere that it should simply be a case of adding a series resistor, the value of which could be calculated by finding out the max current from the data sheets o
