Hi,
Has anyone sucessfully used the Max3100 SPI UART in their design?
I need to add an extra serial port and prefer not to do a SW-UART.
Is there a driver file available that anyone knows of?
Many thanks |

Why not use the forum search facility?.
I have in the past, posted complete code for the MAX3100. It is a little bit of a 'pig' to use, having a couple of quite interesting bugs (the posted example code from the manufacturer, will only work to transmit data, if data is received...). However it is fairly easy to program round these, and make the chip work well.
If you want to talk 'off forum', email me at roger at ttelmah dot demon dot co dot uk, and I'll email you the current code, which is fractionally 'optimised', compared to the stuff I posted.
Best Wishes |
