Would chaning the resistor value lower/higher the current consumption? If not, than I can use lower valued resistors. -----Original Message----- From: pic microcontroller discussion list [mailto:PICLIST@MITVMA.MIT.EDU] On Behalf Of Joe Jansen/TECH/HQ/KEMET/US Sent: Friday, April 23, 2004 12:17 AM To: PICLIST@MITVMA.MIT.EDU Subject: Re: [PICLIST] [EE:] 2 RS232 connections on 1 RS232 port I used a 4.7K for my system. I think that the higher the resistance, the slower your baud rate is going to be. Best bet is to put it on a scope and try a couple different resistors. watch for rounding on the corners. --Joe -- http://www.piclist.com hint: The list server can filter out subtopics (like ads or off topics) for you.
