Hi everybody,
can anyone tell me what should be the potential at the tx and rx lines of
uart at initial state.(whether idle or known state) i read somewhere that
at known state the potential diff is 5v, then the receiver at the other end
can view it as a valid byte as anything potential above 2v is considered as
a valid data. pl explain
