hi all,
I am very new to this field. We are asked to work with ecos on a board which
has a Texas Inst. TL16C452FN chip on board. The datasheet says it is a UART
chip. I am not sure about it being a microprocessor. Is it possible to port
ECOS to this chip?
A UART is just a dumb I/O chip :-). There should be some other part on the
board which is the microprocessor. Generally looking for the biggest one
tends to work ;).
