#129851 - I hope Russell did not lead you down the garden pa
Responding to: ???'s previous message
Using interrupts gets a little more complex. Usually the interrupt would read the data to be sent from a circular buffer of just a simple buffer. Your main code would put the required data in the buffer and signal the interrupt code to send it.

I hope Russell did not lead you down the garden path

yes "Using interrupts gets a little more complex", but only about 10%, however it is ~47000 times more effective.

Polled serial has been the bane of many projects. It works like a charm for the serial and kills everything else.

if you are using polled serial change it immediately

Erik

PS I might use polled serial for a quick hardware debug, but NEVER for "working code"
