Honored Contributor --- Quote Start --- yes, it's a phy only to convert the RS232 level to 3.3V-LVTTL level, no logic function. --- Quote End --- Ok, thanks - that simplifies things. I'll create a pretty empty entity, wire the TX and RX to some LEDS. Add a PLL with 11.0592 MHz for some baud rates - then start SignalTapping on the pins @ PLL clock while sending data from my Garmin or putty console. :)
