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 ...

Everyone knows that the world is analog in nature, yet we insist on dealing with analog signals by digital means. Analog sensor outputs are quickly converted to digital form to improve noise immunity ...

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 ...

It’s a well-known fact that all devices in a system need some kind of communication method to interact with each other inorder to maintain proper functioning of the whole system. In practice we can ...

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 ...

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 ...

So I'm trying to detect through Visual Basic 6.0 when a voltage change occurs on one of the pins of the serial/parallel port. The whole thing is pretty simple; no data transfer/handshaking/etc needs ...
