AVR-Chat

What kind of network topology?

If you can work out a way to do point-to-point I'd go USARTS if you have at
least one spare on each AVR.
Nice and simple to use, and opens up all sorts of other comms options if you
want.
As John said, if you're going off-board, buffered signals are important. Use
standard RS232 chips. 


Or if you want something a bit more fancy - maybe try using the USARTS with
infrared transmitters/receivers?

Subject: [AVR-Chat] Comms between AVR's

What is the common comms method to use to commuicate between AVR's 
(mega series) for short distances (USART, SPI, IIC, CAN), a few inches 
to less than a couple of feet (not on the same board)? This could be 
for 2 or more AVR's. I am using IIC for my eeprom and RTC.
