PIC Specific RS232 routine

Bente Petersen's 9600baud 16F628 UART test circuit and program


UART test program for 16F628

Function
This program sends an alive message and then echoes characters received from a terminal via RS232.

Hardware
The testboard K4 is set up with reset circuit and a ST232 (or MAX232) for RS232 communication.


Testboard K4 configured for 628uart.asm

Software in assembler

Remarks
The ST232 is used for RS232 communication. An MAX232 can also be used. A simpler circuit can be set up using DS275, see the homepage of Wichit Sirichote from Thailand.
A terminal program (HyperTerminal) is set up for 9600 baud with 8 data bits, no parity, no flowcontrol and 1 stop bit.
