rs232

Hello everyone,
I want to ask ,when i create a circuit to communicate pic with a omputer via rs232 and i want to transmit analog signal (no character) .I must to use max232 component (or something similar)????
 

Re: rs232

First, you have to convert this anaolg signal to digital signal - hex numbers - and then you can transmit these hex bytes via RS-232 link to your PC ..
So, choose a PIC that has build-in ADC, or use external ADC and control it with any PIC microcontroller ..
Attached is an example: PIC controls ADC via I2C bus (SCL and SDA lines) and re-transmits data out via RS-232 (MAX232 as CMOS/TTL-RS-232 level converter) ..
