5.3.3 Uni-PIC separate TX-RX design<br />

In each and every design there is step-wise improvements this will eventually<br />

indicate how the final design is come up. The architectural design is as shown in the<br />

Figure 5.4. In this design a good performance processor is used with both transmitter<br />

and receiver circuit to be different. Here the problem of parallel processing can be<br />

eliminated. Also it eliminates the requirement of the other processor reducing the<br />

cost. But proper choice of a 16-bit processor like a micro-controller should be used.<br />

Disadvantages are same as Duo-PIC separate TX-RX design.<br />
