"Bit-banging" an interface means to use software to manipulate general purpose I/O ports to implement the interface without any special hardware support. As you can imagine, this can be quite processor-intensive. Hence my earlier question: http://www.8052.com/forum/read.phtml?id=106817 If the rest of your application is also processor-intensive, bit-banging may not be practical. There's also the question of whether your chosen processor has enough code space - if not, you'll need to change processor anyway, so might as well choose one with two UARTs! |
