RE: [oc] Driving a RS232 serial port semi-direct from the FPGA?

Jonathan,

Perhaps you missed the message of the email? I guess it did pad it with
too much information for some people out there but the main question was
had anybody done a simple serial port core rather than a complete all
singing and dancing UART style one?

The electronic bits were not put there to scare you off just for people
who might have done it before to advise before I blow a cap or two.

Sorry again for scaring you.

Paul
