Hi All.

I need to filter continuous strings of data originating from an electronic scale I chose Pic 16F74 and have finished the hardware. The data string I am working with looks like this

'002093 POLONY KING PEP/KASSLER 0169,99 0000,00 0,006 0,006'
' code' Description price/kg weight tare tare2

there is a start and stop character to the string. I need build a RS232 USART filter to stop the continuous transmission and only transmit the final string set once a measurement is reached.

my question

1. Is the Pic 16F74 fast enough to capture the received string , store it and compare it. Then once its determined this is the final weight transmit it only once. If it is not the final string of a particular weight transaction it can just be overwritten or ignored.

So far I can receive the single characters and re transmited them but have yet to come up with .ASM code to store them and work with them to be retransmitted in the correct sequence.

Am I wasting my time with this processor?
