#102544 - Philips
Responding to: ???'s previous message
Philips has a range of 1-2-4 UARTs with FIFOS and bells and whistles. I studied those a bit and liked what I saw but went with the LPC solution because that allowed me to preprocess the data before the "main uC" had to work it. Using a LPC as an external UART allow the LPC to handle error recovery and such thus alleviating the main fron such tasks. Especially with J1708 and other collision detection based protocols that is a major advantage. I do the same with RS485 where the bus turning is not very easily handled in combination with external FIFOs.
