The operation and description of the UART serial interface through USB is discussed in this application note. In addition, the firmware application code in C language, containing communication ...

Before 2000, desktop printers for business had one of two interfaces: serial and parallel. The type of interface dictated the type of cable you used to connect the printer to the PC and how fast the ...

We’re always excited to get a new chip or SIM card to interface, but our enthusiasm is often dampened by the prototyping process. Interfacing any chip usually means breadboarding a circuit, writing ...

Serial buses dot the landscape of embedded design. From displays to storage to peripherals, serial interfaces make communications possible. Many serial communication interfaces compete for use in ...

It’s happened to all of us at one time or another. There’s some component sitting on the bench, say an I2C sensor, a new display, or maybe a flash chip, and you want to poke around with it. So you get ...

Sigma Designs has launched its ZM5304 “Z-Wave Serial Interface Module with Antenna” into volume production. According to the company, the device is its most easily integrated solution among the Z-Wave ...

It may come as a surprise to those trying to make their initial investigation into audio systems design that there is a de-facto standard for transferring audio data within a system. Despite the ...

Transmitting high-speed data over a cable or printed-circuit-board (PCB) path will significantly attenuate and distort the signal. Transmission paths are usually transmission lines that introduce ...

For more than 20 years, the parallel bus interface has been the mainstream storage interconnect for most storage systems. But increasing bandwidth and flexibility demands have exposed inefficiencies ...

Audio Precision, makers of audio test and measurement gear, has introduced a new digital serial I/O module for its APx range of audio analyzers. The multichannel APx Digital Serial I/O option allows ...
