#99861 - Re: this will be a mess when you do not
Responding to: ???'s previous message
Hi Erik,

Thanks for pointing out some other external UART chips. I didn't know they existed until today :-) This might be a viable option if I can't reasonably write code for a software UART.

In regards to using the already used built-in UART, I really wanted to be able to send different information then whats displayed on the LCD. I also don't want issues with having two devices sending information to the 2051 at the same time (ie, barcode scanner and the computer).

As for no free timers, could I use the timer for the built in UART also for a software UART? Having the same buad rate for both isn't an issue.

Thanks,
J Silverman
