Product Example
Software USART
• lowest cost solution • simple applications • CPU load relatively high • use Internal RC Oscillator
AN240
PIC12F675 PIC16F676 PIC16F628A
And Many More…
Hardware USART
• medium cost solution • more complex applications • medium CPU load • external resonator or crystal required
AN237
PIC16F819 PIC16F73 PIC16F913
Enhanced USART (EUSART)
• cost comparable to hardware USART • complex application • lowest CPU load • use internal RC oscillator
