I received a pointer to the Motorola MC14469 Addressable Asynchronous
Receiver/Transmitter in response to a request for info on simple MCU
network interface chips.  I want something to make residential/
industrial/automotive control networks "easy" to make.

The MC14469 is _almost_ ideal - the only problem that I have with it
is that while it can send back 16 bits of info, it is only able to
receive 7 bits of data.  I need at least 8 bits.

I would appreciate any info on an addressable device that is able to
receive and transmit 8-bit data.  Simplicity is key.

Also, are there versions of the M68HC705 that are easy to use for such
communication?

Thanks!

P.S.  There was an article in Circuit Cellar and/or ComputerCraft
about MCU networks.  I couldn't find any in my collection.  Anyone
remember the issue(s)?
