Hello EE friends,
I am thinking of starting a new project where I would like to use a microcontroller to communicate temperature readings from a temperature sensor that is connected to it to my pc and then have the pc store the data in a text file.
In the past I have experimented with ttl usb uart connection to display readings into putty, but have never saved or collected such data. What would be the best communication protocol?
I'm not sure how to approach this and was wondering if you helpful people could point me in the right direction or maybe critique my current approach.
What I have available to me PC windows 10 bluetooth enabled, pic16f1829: UART, I2C. temperature sensor. I am willing to buy more parts or chips.
I feel like I would have to have two programs one for the micro to send the data and then one running on the pc to receive and store?
Any insight?
