#146008 - Twisted Pair
Responding to: ???'s previous message
Erik Malund said:
a) direct uC TxD to uC RxD?

Erik Malund said:
for a) and b) twisted pair makes no difference

Ap Charles said:
Yep, The UARTS directly TXD with RXD . I couldnt comprehend when you say "twisted pair makes no difference".

I guess he means that it brings no advantage over non-twisted wires?

In fact, it might be better to avoid twisted pairs:
If you twist together the Tx and Rx wires with unbalanced, single-ended signals, you increase the risk of crosstalk...

Probably not significant for only 4 feet and provided both ends are connected - but I have seen such problems with long RS232 cables when one end was disconnected...
