Do you have access to an oscilloscope? If so, I would connect to the pc->micro data line, and look to see if the pc is sending anything. If it is not, then I would look at the handshake lines. If the pc is sending characters but the micro is not seeing them, that is a different problem. But firs

I think people mainly use the atmel studio tools, either under windows, windows in a VM, or maybe under wine. We're past the days when an XP-or-better machine costs used car money, after all. 50 bux will get you something that still runs, even if linux is your first love. > Message: 2 > Date: Mon,

[Amforth] HW Assisted Flow Control

2014-07-24 Thread dnyberg
I've thought about this issue, and have concluded that it's rather simple, if you are building your own hardware, and you are willing to be a little bit tricky. Receiving data too fast from an atmel generally isn't the problem, as I'm assuming your PC can handle incoming data as fast as it can tra
