Hello Johnson,

J>>anyone can explain what is the difference between hardware serout and software serout, which one is better (for PIC 16f628a)?<<

Hardware uses the chips internal USART design (not all chips have this built into it, so check your datasheet for it!

and Software uses your program to transfer the data. You can use any pin you want that has I/O built on it.

Which is better?? usually hardware...But if software works... all the better for me!
