#105338 - why asynchronous serial Responding to: ???'s previous message |
For the "outside of box", the asynchronous serial connection ("UART", "RS232") has an advantage of being rather noise-resistant and sort of self-timing (or permanently resynchronised).
And widespread, too. Both I2C and SPI gets completely confused by a single glitch on the clock line. If you want to experiment, you can try using Manchester or any other self-clocking scheme, but you will then need to develop your own transmitter and receiver. Using microcontroller and bit-banging, you will be restricted to rather low speeds. Oh yes, and for home automation... Do you want to discuss it in depth, perhaps in a new thread? Meantime, a picture of what such a project might involve... Jan Waclawek |
