Hi all.
In the latest incarnation of the manual, it mentions that the scratch pad is useful for GPS data input. With the extra RAM, I would agree.
The only thing is, that a standard NMEA sentence is allowed to be upto 80 characters long. Most GPSs usually ouput several sentences at a time, GLL, RMC, GGA, RMB, ZDA, etc.
To make use of the scratch pad RAM, it would be useful to allow only a certain, selected sentence through.
How would you go about this?
Use an 8M, as a preselector, toggling a 28X1 via an interrupt, as an example?
