 		 #173694 - It could be done with two wires and 2-UART MCU
Responding to: Erik Malund's previous message
Erik Malund said:
Nowadays, nearly all the '52's have the second UART.
actually, it seems they do not; however with the abolishment of the 51/52/... distinction many '51 versions do. It seems that any derivative that goes more than a bit past the traditional '52 is named a '51

Gee ... I hadn't run into that ... I always (at least in recent decades) have thought of the '51 as the guy with fewer resources ...

It's odd that the eval boards don't support it.
the issue is not that they "don't support it" but that only one transceivers is there.

Well, I did point out one really cheap ($40q1) board that has both types of transceivers, yet only one UART on the "stock" '51. Two added wires would fix that, of course, if you plugged in a PLCC-44-packaged MCU with two UARTs on board. You then simply set the jumpers to provide the transceiver you want associated with the first UART and connect the two wires from the second UART to the opposite position in the jumper set.
