Detailed Description

A serial port (UART) for communication with other serial devices This is a variation of the Serial class that doesn't use streams, thus making it safe to use in interrupt handlers with the RTOS.

Can be used for Full Duplex communication, or Simplex by specifying one pin as NC (Not Connected)

Example:

 // Send a char to the PC

 #include "mbed.h"

 RawSerial pc(USBTX, USBRX);

 int main() {
     pc.putc('A');
 }
