UART Serial communication using 8051
We have covered the basics of timers in the previous tutorial, with that we can see how can a microcontroller communicate with a computer serially.
There are two ways to connect a microcontroller to a computer.
- Using RS232 protocol to the legacy serial port.
- Using a USB to serial convertor.
From microcontroller programming point of view, there is fundamentally no difference.
