CC3200LaunchXL-UART Communication with external Microcontroller

[shashank17 0]

Hi,

 

I'm working on some of the project where I have to communicate CC3200 to external microcontroller (CC2650) using UART communication .Is the serial pass through or serial event example can work on CC 3200 to communicate with ex. microcontroller? I'm new to energia. 

 

Awaiting for your response on the same.

 

Thanks & Regards,

I have no idea about those particular examples.

Usually when using Energia for that I only needed really simple stuff so I used Serial.available on the receiving end to check if anything was received. The serial library has a buffer and automatically stores what was received (of course there's a limit of how much you can receive before having to start emptying the buffer)

You can use Serial1 for communication with the external micro. The Serial event and Serial passthrough examples will work. It however depends on what exactly you are looking for to communicate with the external controller. If it is regular serial 8N1 then you should be able to communicate with it.

Hi, 

 

Can you help me with hardware settings? Currently I'm using this settings.please have a look- https://www.dropbox.com/s/qymxhws8i12zckh/20161014_152218.jpg?dl=0

 

what changes I have to made in CC3200 launchpad to receive the data over serial from external controller board (like jumper setting ) and for UART which pin I have to use to receive the data.Please guide.In my CC3200 i'm using serial pass through code. I just want to get the data and display on serial monitor.

 

Thanks & Regards,
