Assignment 3 Microprocessor Systems and Applications

Microprocessor Systems and Application Assignment3 Page 2 of 4

For this assignment, the students will be studying Serial communication and software testing. 1) Produce assembly program code to facilitate digital
input and output of data using Asynchronous serial communication of below specification: a) Clock speed of 20MHz, 9.6Kbits/S (9600 baud rate), 8 data bits and no parity.

b) If ASCII characters A and B are being transmitted, with 1 stop bit, 8 data bits, odd parity and 1 stop bit. Hint: 1) Use the PIC data sheet to help you. a) b) c) d) e) f) Write a pseudo code for the program. (p6) Produce a flow chart for the program. (p7) Print your assembly program. (p8) Write a short report on serial communication interface, its advantages and disadvantages (p8) Draw the waveform of the information being transmitted and select a suitable instrument to test your program against your waveform. (D3) Explain your choice of instrument. (D3)
