[SOLVED] PIC165877 and MikroC

[tahir4awan]

I don't have much knowledge about advanced microcontroller programming and the term UART always confused me. What I understand about UART that you can send data from PC to microcontroller.
Can anyone explain me about UART and it would be better if you can post circuit diagram so that I can better understand it. Thanks

I don´t use MikroC myself but you can always change to hitech free version and spend some time looking at the samples they have.

They have one about the uart for the PIC16XXXX.

You use any simulator program? like isis proteus? i can show you how you can connect over a virtual rs232 COM(connects from proteus to a receiver program just like Hercules or the Rs232analyser, you can also create a VB app to check the data in/out of the pic) using a ComPin and a db9.

Thanks for reply
Basically my point is that UART is a chip that makes communication between PC and Microcontroller. Am I right?

Universal asynchronous receiver/transmitter - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia <--- this is UART

you are refering to another kind of stuff

i mainly set it as UART (Software) and Chip (Hardware)

in the Chip you have some choices you can make.I like the chip max232

Datasheet - www.datasheetcatalog.org/datasheet/.../max232.pdf

I learn everything from button F1( Help) UART it's very basic if we are talking about the communication between PC <----> MCU
in fact I still think UART write it easy but UART read it more complex. :lol:

see below example only UART_wirte..

Thank you very much boyguitar1
