Provided the functionality of PB10 can be changed on the fly from a UART Rx to a general I/O pin then you can definitely send data out of the box to the remote. Only issues I see are: a) Sending the data out of the Jukebox without too much overhead and at a reasonable bitrate. Since we can't use the Tx side of the UART (pin not connected), it will have to be clocked out bit by bit. This is why I was thinking that it would be nice if it could be piggybacked on top of an existing time-dependent routine????? b) Making sure that the micro in the remote can handle Tx and Rx on the same wire - don't see why it can't. h ----- Original Message ----- From: "George Styles" <george_at_ripnet.co.uk> To: <rockbox_at_cool.haxx.se> Sent: Friday, October 04, 2002 12:03 AM Subject: Re: Remote control with display > Assuming that 3v is enough to make the PC read 1 (AFAIK there is a > threashold above which a digital device registers a 1) > > cant we use a simple potential divider to lower the 5v to the needed 3v? > > g > > ----- Original Message ----- > From: "Nielsen Linus (ext)" <Linus.Nielsen_at_elema.siemens.se> > To: <rockbox_at_cool.haxx.se> > Sent: Thursday, October 03, 2002 12:45 PM > Subject: RE: Remote control with display > > > > > I assume that that would be OK with no voltage conversion etc. needed. > > > > No it will not.
