Software handshaking for serial port

Jan 05, 2009 1 Replies

I want to connect INTEL atom z5xx to PIC 16F690 using serial port with SOFTWARE FLOW CONTROL . DOES INTEL atom z5xx support software handshaking? What standard must be met to use Serial port with software handshaking ?


?

Typical software flow control is easy. The receiver transmits XOFF/XON characters. I leave looking up the ASCII codes for these as an exercise to the reader.

So unless the hardware connection does not support bidirectional transmission (I haven't used these products) then that's your answer. Look up software flow control on wikipedia. Ed
