This article is the 3rd part of the series MCU Programming Basics, which is communication with external peripherals using serial communication. It differentiates the difference between parallel and ...

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 ...

After a youth spent playing with Amigas and getting into all sorts of trouble on the school computer network, I’ve always had a soft spot in my heart for hardware from the 80s and 90s. This extends ...

The electronics industry is in the midst of a dramatic shift away from traditional parallel communication standards and towards new, high-speed serial interface technologies. This transformation is ...

Used Virtex-4 FPGA and Verilog to design an SFI-4.1 interface, a 16-channel, source-synchronous LVDS interface operating at single data rate. Each channel operates at the speed of 630 Mbps.

This is just a general question. I know, obviously, that there are RS-232 "serial ports" and IEEE 1284/Centronix ports "parallel ports," and that these are "digital" connections. Then you have things ...

The MAX3950 is designed to convert 10-Gbps serial data to 16-bit-wide, 622-Mbps parallel data. Its ability to handle FEC data rates make the MAX3950 ideal for a variety of applications in SDH/SONET ...

Getting data to a storage medium requires transmission. Parallel transmission has historically been the preferred way to write data to disk. But at current speeds, serial transmission can be faster ...

This file type includes high resolution graphics and schematics when applicable. Practically every electronic product made today uses one or more serial data interfaces. A serial interface is the ...
