Problem with serial programming
« on: November 01, 2007, 07:23:21 AM »
We r trying to do serial programming.But somehow its not working.
We r taking signals from DB9 pin and r giving it to RxD pin of 8051 through MAX232.
It's not working. Don't know why??
Can't figure it out.
I've tried it a lot
Pls help as urgently as u can.

Tell us more about your setup.

Make sure your baud rates are correct.

A good way to debug is connect the tx and rx lines and see if a device can talk to itself. For example, connect the tx and rx lines on your db9, use hyperterminal, and see if you receive what you send.

i would think you also need to connect the txd pin to the max232 aswell otherwise theres no 2 way communication?

The 8051 cant say its ready to transfer data if it cant transmit it
