Re: SoftwareSerial isn't working on ATMEGA 1284

Has anyone managed to get SoftwareSerial working on the atmega1284p

Have tried with alternative digital pin macros and alternative SoftwareSerial library but still same results - no ability to transmit data to the device, but able to read from it.

Has this been resolved? Any solution for SoftwareSerial on the atmega1284p? thanks

It says 'resolved' in the title :slight_smile:

Not really an answer to your question, but there are two hardware serial available. Could you just use one of those instead?

What baud rate are you using? I know it's been reported that SoftwareSerial doesn't work reliably at higher speeds(like >=115200).

The other threads were old so not really hijacking. Not arguing.
