    How do I use a 16C550C to interface a serial port to a homemade logic circuit? Any example circuits?

    I want to use it to interface the serial port to a parallel output ADC. I will also connect some logic onto the the output and and use it to select the input line, control motors, etc. I'll use latches to multiplex the I/O pins for both input and output.
    How do I wire it? Is there a better solution instead? Can I use a PIC?
