Using UART of PIC Microcontroller – Hi Tech C

UART stands for Universal Asynchronous Receiver / Transmitter. It is a serial communication interface which uses two lines for sending (TX) and receiving (RX) data. As its name indicates it is an asynchronous communication interface, which means it doesn't need to send clock along with it as in synchronous communications. UART is the communication standard of our old computer's RS-232 serial port. Most of the Microchip's PIC Microcontrollers have built in USART Module. USART stands for Universal Synchronous Asynchronous Receiver...
