Hi, I want to add a new serial port on micro 2440. 3 aren't enough for me XD I'm planning to use some unused EINTs (EINT18, EINT19 and EINT20) as TX, RX and RTS. I was reading kernel codes and I found the UARTs definitions on: s3c2440.c mach-mini2440.c devs.c samsung.c I'll try to modify these files to add a new com port (ttySAC3). Before start this saga, I would like to know if anyone have a better and easier idea. Thanks in advance :D
Any chance to add one more serial port on micro2440?
The S3C2440 CPU has only 3 internal UARTs. If you need more than this, you must attach some additional UART devices (like NS16550) to this CPU (for example via Mini2440's CON5 header).
I am aware that people use a software UART in some of the small AVR 8bit uPs. http://www.google.co.nz/#hl=en&source=hp&q=uart+software+avrfrea... Dave
thanks for your ideas. I'll try the suggestions. Probably a UART software will be easier for me xD Thanks.
