i am building a corles calc to calc link cable, ive sourced some sutable RF transmitter/Reciver modules, but i need to know some specs.

1) Calculators Data IN / OUT rate (kbp/s)
2) Voltage of Input Output (maximum and minimum would be helpful, but standerd voltage would be fine)

any help would be great :D

cheers

mmm... as i know the RS-232 serial port work with about 4.5~5 Volts, thats the function of the MAX-232 (CI of the link cable). I hope that you can make that project, it will be so good! :rock:

my only problem (at the moment) is that i have to use 2 transmitters and 2 recivers: one TX and RX at each end, unless anyone else can find a better component, and at under ?20:00 GBP

with concern to the link cordless link cable, i have dcided that i am going to use an IR transciver to make the link cordless.

here are tha advantages and disadvantages

Advantages (of IR) :
Smaller
Cheaper
Less power consuming

Disadvantages (of IR) :
Shorter range
line of sight required

as you can see IR has more advantages than diadvantages, so im going to buy the transivers, whan i get paid in a few weeks
