Please change the way PTA1 and PTA2 are overwritten when USB serial is used
Hello All, When making a USB serial object on KL25Z:
Serial pc(USBTX, USBRX);
pins PTA1 and PTA2 are overwritten to be serial communication too. This is very unclear from the communication, and to me a waste of resources; I want to use those pins!
My suggestion:
- Document this behaviour in "Serial" and "SerialPC" in the handbook, preferably in one of those yellow / orange boxes
- Change the code to let the user disable this "feature", for example like this:
Serial pc(USBTX,USBRX,NO_PHYSICAL_Pins);
I inadvertently made this a Question, where it should have been a discussion :) Now to be found here: http://mbed.org/forum/bugs-suggestions/topic/4572/?page=1#comment-22772
