I want to use a pic 16f877a to read the serial output of a RFID reader. can someone help?
I want to read the codes from an RFID reader into memory of a PIC 16F877a. The RFID reader uses a serial output. it outputs a 12 byte ascii character code, with a start and stop byte, and each is byte is preceded and ended with a start and stop bit. does anyone have any tips for doing this?

We really need more information to answer this. For example, when you say "serial", do you mean RS-232 serial, or one of the thousands of other serial protocols out there? Is it possible to get the data-sheet from which you got the info on the serial protocol? How about the make/model of the reader, at least?
Also, what exactly do you want to know about the process? Are you having trouble with the hardware side, the software side, or something else?
