Dear fellow Piclisters, Can anyone clarify why Microchip advertises the PICDEM.NET 2 as having RS-485 capability when the only onboard interface chip is a MAX3232? I don't believe (after checking datasheet) that the MAX3232 is EIA-485 compatible or capable... Yes - I am aware that I can interface RS-485 IC's with EUART.
