Does anyone have any experience in using an RS232 port to power a periphereal device? The device includes a small PIC micro that will need to send data back to the computer it's plugged into, so I need to power the RS232 driver as well.
Any practical advice such as how much current and voltage I can rely on will be appreciated.
