How to pass the received characters from RCREG to an array? |

Hello good evening!
Is there a way on how can I do this?
I want to read the incoming characters from RCREG (my PIC is 16F628A) and then I will place them in an array where they will be stored temporarily.
This is a part of my project wherein the characters that will be received will be displayed by LED matrix using a decoder like MAX6952.
Thanks. Any suggestions or snippets of code will be highly appreciated. |

Look at ex_SISR.c
Shows how to receive characters, and buffer them in an array. Slightly more sophisticated than a simple array, it handles the array as a 'circular' buffer.

As an additional question, actually a newbie question, what do you mean by a circular buffer?
Thanks a lot. |

Google finds this as the first hit for circular buffer:

It has what you want to know...
Please to use Google, you can find out a lot that way. _________________ Google and Forum Search are some of your best tools!!!! |
