Re: [AVR-Chat] question about serial port bit banging

2005-12-27 by Jim Wagner

Jim -

There is an Atmel apnote on bit-banged serial. It should be
on the Atmel website AND on the AVRFreaks.net site. It
should save you a lot of hassle! If you look at the
waveforms for a standard serial UART, you will see what the
idle levels are at the I/O pin.

Cheers
Jim
