How to Use MAX232 to Communicate Between a PIC and a PC
For more details about this project, please click this link to see the full article: http://www.allaboutcircuits.com/proje...
Maxim Integrated Products created this IC in 1987. It is a dual driver/receiver and typically converts the RX, TX, CTS and RTS signals. With a MAX232 IC you can easily connect your PIC microcontroller to your PC. This opens up a lot of opportunities. You can control LEDs, fans, relays and solenoids, to name a few. In this How To, we're controlling a LED. LED on - LED off. Supersimple. You'll be needing a computer with a serialport or a serial to USB converter. I'm using a USB to RS-232 adapter. This is one simple way to control a LED, fan, relay or solenoid with a computer and a PIC.
