Jul 26, 2015 at 13:05 comment added Olin Lathrop @MathieuL: Agreed. On small systems like this you want to handle individual bytes at a time, not try to buffer whole packets or something. In the end some code somewhere it going to handle the bytes individually anyway, you might as well design the system that way too. It actually makes things easier in most cases. Also, I usually use the UART interrupts to implement larger software FIFOs for sending and receiving, especially on a PIC 18 and above.
Jul 26, 2015 at 12:40 comment added Mathieu L. Id just add(for those who may not know) that PIC18F fifos are quite small so any needed accumulation of data (ex the get a full packet of data) should be done in a user's software buffer.
