Hello, I need help with the serial communication, when I am sending data from PC (hyper-terminal) through RS232 , RI flag should rise to '1' and its does not happened, what may be the problem?
BTW, when I am programming the same device in the PLCC package the flag is triggered, I am currently use the VQFP package witch I have problem with.
What debugging have you done?
- does the data arrive at the correct pin of the processor - maybe CAD symbol is incorrect? - does it have the correct voltage levels? - does it have the correct baudrate - easy to check that the chip sends with same baudrate as the PC. - is hyperterminal configured to require hw handshake signals? - are there any known differences between the two chips, besides the package? - both chips using same crystal frequency? - does everything else work ok with the VQFP-based design?
