Hi, i'm looking for an RS232 transceiver with these features 1. True Rs232 2. 3.3V as Vcc 3. 1Tx/1Rx 4. ESD protection 5. Lowest additional components Any suggestion? I've found ADM3202: this doesn't meets all requirements (so i'm looking for something better), but reading datasheet i have a question: is true rs232 or not? If maximum voltage (with charge pump) is +-6.6V, how it can acce...

Dear All, Could anybody suggest me what are the possible ways to improve the signal quality of 5 ft long RS232 Serial line at Baud Rate 115200? I posted a question asking on flash programming failures via RS232 Serial Link, a few days ago. Here are more details on the issue. The connection link starts from Embedded PC to RS232 to 3V logic level converter, and then from the outputs o...

I have to solve this ..by phone!,i need your help,or your hints. There is a little application done in VB that reads and sends data to a board using the MSComm object.It works fine on a Pc with its RS232 serial port. As noticed newest laptops has plenty of USB's but no RS232 ports. So a USB to serial was bought,installed as a COM1 (or COM3 i don't remeber exactly now) with no conflicts a...

I found a nice auto ranging frequency counter online here: http://freenet-homepage.de/dl4yhf/freq_counter/freq_counter.html Did not have those 7 segment displays, considered an LCD interface, but why not use RS232, and power it from the RS232 too? Just a probe you can bring along with your laptop, saves weight :-) So.. modified that code a bit:-) This is what the output looks like: ftp...

sci.electronics.design rs232 interupt on old ibm pc type machines Below are an rs232 initialization and a handler routine that work well on later vintage ibm pc types, roughly 200 mc and above. The AT vintage types however are a bust. The 8250 registers and the interupt mask register in the interupt controller appear as expected in both cases. Anyone have an idea what is missing f...

Does anyone know of a simple program to look at a PC's RS232 port? There are so many on Download.com, I don't know where to start. I need one that will display each byte in it's binary form on the screen. (Many are ascii). Doesn't need to communicate, just display the received data. Thanks.

I know that many modern "RS232" ports are actually not RS-232 spec compliant. I can test a few gadgets we have around here, but I was wondering if anybody else has seen wildly non-compliant ports. Does everybody still even bother to swing negative on drivers? What are the smallest drive excursions anyone's seen? I know that my HP computer receivers will blow up if they see honest +-1...

I have a device that has a three digit LED display. The chip that drives the LED also has four Binary Weighted outputs (1,2,4,8) and three address pins for 100's, 10's and units. I want to drive a FIFO UART of some sort to output an RS232 stream so that this device can update a software program. Baud rate 300 to 4800 range would be nice if possible. The updates are about 300/second I...

Does anybody have a favorite USB to RS-232 adaptor that they can recommend? Evidently some are not created equal and have had some issues. A colleague in France reported that he had found some discrepancies in how the grounding was accomplished: "It appears that the RS232 plug body is NOT always bound to USB plug body, nor to the pin 5 (ground) of the rs232 plug, so that finally there...

A cheap ( < 10 $) very accurate LC meter with RS232 interface. http://panteltje.com/panteltje/pic/lc_pic/ All credit goes to somebody else (actually a lot of people) for this design. I merely simplified it some more :-) It seems to be very accurate, and is most useful if you are winding your own inductors or working with RF and extremely small capacitors, a few pF is no problem for this.

Hi For a test setup I often need an analog signal to feed into the device under test. So I need a instrument with an anlog output. It needs to run on RS232 or USB I could roll my own, with a eval board, but have no time to spend on that Anyone know of a cheap model (no the National Instruments, NIDaqs, they are prohibitive expensive) Thanks Klaus

Hi, I recently designed a product with an RS232 port on it. I put a common mode choke on the ground and data lines to reduce EMI. Two ground lines, Tx data and Rx data go through the choke. The choke I chose was a tiny eight terminal 0805 thing with an 80mA rating. At the time I thought that would be adequate for RS232, but we've managed to destroy a number of them through regul...

To 'stabilize' the frequency from the 'twisted' wire oscillator as described in previous posts, and to be able to set it via RS232 and read it, I wrote some PIC 18F14K22 asm and added a simple 2 line LCD. The first line shows the requested frequency ,as typed in via RS232. The bottom line shows the measured frequency (against a 10 MHz xtal). http://panteltje.com/pub/GPG_freq_counter_PLL_IMG_...

I want to use the MAX9939, http://datasheets.maxim-ic.com/en/ds/MAX9939.pdf, on a board with no uP and control it instead with an RS232 serial port from a PC. I thought at first I could do this with the MAX3110E: http://datasheets.maxim-ic.com/en/ds/MAX3110E-MAX3111E.pdf but after reading this spec sheet I notice that on both the MAX3110E and the MAX9939 the SCLK line is an input.
