Hello everyone o/
I'm new to microcontrollers, and the thing I want to do is to interface a 8051 with PC via USB. I mean like having a couple of LEDs connected to the mC and switching them on and off from PC...
I've searched aaaaalll over the internet! I really did, and I found many many useful info actually. I just can't get to decide with is which :roll:
As far as i could understand, I'll have to use a usb to rs232 converter, because 8051 family works well with that sort of serial communication. So is it max232 that I should use? or cp2102...
to be honest i'm a little confused, I don't really want a final answer here, I just would appreciate it if somebody could give put me in the right direction.
Thanks in advance.
