INTRODUCTION
Chapter 2. Installation and Operation
This chapter discusses the operation of the MCP215X/40 Developer’s Daughter Board
and how it can be used in conjunction with some of Microchip’s low-cost PICDEM™
Demo Boards or easily connected to your system.
When the MCP215X/40 Developer’s Daughter Board is used in conjunction with one of
the low-cost PICDEM™ Demo Boards, it demonstrates the implementation of an
embedded system with an IrDA
Primary Device (PC with IR port, PDA, etc.) is required to demonstrate the operation of
this embedded system.
The Host UART interface includes the data signals (TX and RX) and the flow control
signals (CTS, RTS, CD, DSR, DTR and RI). A discussion of the Host UART interface
is given in the following application note:
• AN858, “Interfacing the MCP215X to a Host Controller” (DS00858)
• AN927, “Data Throughput and the MCP215X” (DS00927)
