Hi all!

I know there has previously been some discussion, here in the
newsgroup, about connecting an optical mouse to the HB. What I'm now
supposed to do is, I'm new to the HB so please help me as much as
possible!, to build a tracking device based on the ADNK-2030 kit
provided by Agilent Technologies. This kit is inherent in many
(wireless) optical mice of today. I'm supposed to use the serial port
at the ADNS-2030 sensor
(http://literature.agilent.com/litweb/pdf/5988-5686EN.pdf). This
sensor has a pin that is for both input and output asynchronous serial
data. There is also a pin for the serial port clock at the ADNS-2030.
What I am supposed to do is to connect the serial port of the
ADNS-2030 to some serial port at the HB, to be able to continuously
communicate and read data from the sensor. Which port should I use?
and how will I do that? I am thinking of connecting the ADNS-2030 to
the SPI, which I read may provide "1 Mbaud serial peripheral
interface". I think the 9600baud port at HB will not be fast enough.
Absolute maximum frequency of the ADNS-2030 serial clock is 4.5MHz.

Is there anyone out there that have solved this, or similar problems,
before? I case not; help me anyway!

Thanks, Tomas Carlsson
