250-BYTE S -> P DATA TRANSFER DEMO - PALM
D.1.3.2
After installing the AN888 application program to your Palm PDA, the program needs
to be launched. This PDA program communicates with the MCP215X/40 Developer’s
Daughter Board.
Table D-5 shows the steps to demonstrate the 250-byte S -> P Data Transfer program.
