Hi everyone,
I am interfacing a EM-406A gps unit from Sparkfun with a 28X1
http://www.sparkfun.com/commerce/product_info.php?products_id=465
The gps unit outputs TTL 2400bps serial. I have searched the forum and discovered the 28X1 port c are all schmit trigger inputs. My question is can I use port A for serial in commands?
I have the serial in working on a 08M that has a TTL input, but I need it to work on a 28X1. What exactly is the difference between TTL and schmit inputs? The voltage level that classes a HIGH? Is it possible to add a hardware mod to allow the TTL signal on the schmit input?
If its not possible on a 28X1 will the 28X2 do it?
Thanks in advance.
