Hello,
I'm working on a spinning pov display which I want to connect to the pc.
I would like to be able to send data to the pic at the highest rate possible using only 2 wires (1 of them is the common ground).
Since it's a spinning pov display the 3 contacts (+V, GND, DATA) will be moving and probably picking up noise.
Hopefully this pic will clarify the connections:
**broken link removed**
Anyways, in order to use serial communication between the pc and the pic do I have to use an RS232 to TTL convertor (max232) ?
I've read somewhere that noways the serial port uses TTL signals.
What kind of bitrate will I be able to get from this setup ?
Is there any way (some simple modulation ?) to get a high bitrate ? around 14400 bps ?
