I was using a 12f675 in a project and after realizing i needed a max232 chip to get to rs232 voltage levels I decided to get some 16f688's that have a hardware usart. Much to my suprise, it also needs a max232 chip as it also is at TTL levels. So what are the advantages of a hardware usart over just using serin and serout software commands?
Thanks
Jason
