What is the maximum reliable speed that a PIC16F88 can bi-directionally communicate with a PIC16F877A when both have 20 MHz crystals? The manual says DEBUG is the smallest and fastest comms routine but fails to mention anything about the maximum data rates.
I need reliable comms between four PICs on the same PC board. They all run at 20 MHz.
I cannot use the USART as this is reserved for debugging and I have experienced startup problems when two PICs, both running bootloaders, are joined together via the hardware USART
Cheers
Brian.
