The topic of today's movie will be serial connection known as Serial, UART, COM, RS232, RS485.
This communication standard has long been known in various types of devices,
but in recent years it has been popularized even more thanks to Arduino and all kinds of microcontrollers,
such as STM32, ESP8266, MSP430, AVR etc.
On the example of two devices: STM32 and RF8000 Power Meter (RF-Power8000), I will show you how to write dedicated libraries for this type of equipment.
I will provide you with basic theoretical knowledge, information about the necessary libraries that you must have.
We will also go through the application development process.
