It is like small hom <noauthor@nospam.com> http://www.8051projects.net/forum-t9448.html you can do it with pc's parallel port.but if you want large distance or less wires, serial can be the choice.pc-->microcontroller-->circuitry for deri abbas1707<abbas@nospam.com> http://www.8051projects.net/forum-t9448.html I want just few outputs (not more than 8) and serial connection would be fine. Where to find schematics for programmer and serial connection?
