Hi!!!
How are you?
Im working in a project that involves the usage of several arduinos to control several leds stripes, and a arduino mega that will be giving orders to the other arduinos, but the catch is that for obtaining the correct visual effect with the led stripes, it requires to be at least more than 0.7 mbits per connection...
Is it possible to have aprox 1mbps connections in each serial port that the arduino mega has??
something like this:
Serial1.begin(1000000); Serial2.begin(1000000); Serial3.begin(1000000);
If its possible, how can i measure that its real 1mbit??
I make a test, with the mega and a diecimila, but i'm not really sure if its at that speed...
Mega Code:
void setup() {
Serial.begin(230400); Serial1.begin(1000001); }
void loop() {
while (Serial1.available() > 0) { Serial.print("Speed: "); Serial.println(Serial1.read(),DEC); }
}
Diecimila code:
char input[20];
void setup() {
Serial.begin(1000001); }
void loop() {
int i = 0; while (Serial.available() > 0) { input = Serial.read(); * i++;* * }* * Serial.write(0x80);* * }* --------------------------------------------------------------------------- When i use the hyperterminal on windows, and use the usb with the mega, the max baud rate i can use is 230400, but if i use the next baud rate on the hyperterminal (460800), and change it in the mega also, i just get characters like this: ¸?“°¥¥¤??±'¸?³°¥¥¤º?±²¸?“°¥¥¤? ±²?±¤?
