All,
Currently we are investigating whether we can use a Rabbit RCM3200 uC to read in data on 4 serial ports (at 115200) and to write it to an UDP port. The Rabbit only has a 1 byte 'FIFO', so it is most likely we need an external UART. A complicating factor is that we need to timestamp (1 byte) every single byte that is received.
What type/brand of UART do you guys advice and is it possible to write this timestamp byte into the FIFO directly?
Any suggestion is most welcome.
