Dziku discuss how to configure a cheap 433MHz wireless module for serial communication: HC-12 are cheap 433MHz wireless serial port communication modules with a range up to 1800m in open space. Each costs about $5 when bought from China, and 2 of them can create wireless UART link...

A Basic board to test the Atmel SAMD09. On board there is also a CH340 uart to usb bridge Build this board to getting started with the SAMD microcontroller family after I made the mistake to try the much bigger SAMD21 first. The SAMD09 used here is he smallest from this family and...

The Module is based on The MCP2200, which is a USB-to-UART serial converter which enables USB connectivity in application that have a UART interface. The device reduces external components by integrating the USB termination resistors. The MCP2200 also has 256-bytes of integrated user...

moamindustries.com hacked an Omron RS8 blood pressure cuff by adding a UART interface to it. As part of a prototype developed 12 months ago I was tasked with reading measurements from a blood pressure cuff [sphygmomanometer] in real time. Not surprisingly there are no consumer level...

Maurizio tipped us with his latest article on how to use Serial Port in C#. The article does cover the basic code needed to achieve serial communication. The serial port of the PC is a very important resource both in industrial environment and in home-made electronics, due to the...
