Outputting data from a microcontroller over a serial port is convenient and easy, but formatting, visualizing, and analyzing the data can be tedious and frustrating. [Alex Spataru] knows this all too ...

New DSA8200 Sampling Oscilloscope Solution is Ideal for Multi-Gigabit Serial Data Network Analysis Applications BEAVERTON, Ore.—Tektronix, Inc., a leading worldwide provider of test, measurement and ...

It’s the easiest thing in the world — simple, straightforward serial data. It’s the fallback communication protocol for nearly every embedded system out there, and so it’s one that you really want to ...

This application note describes an example of application in which the I2C module of the SH7145F is used to read/write data from/to a two-wire serial (I2C bus) EEPROM. Data communication is generally ...

When looking at protocol information on a bus, an oscilloscope may not be the first instrument to come to mind�until now. As most engineers know, digital oscilloscopes are an indispensable ...

The UART, or universal asynchronous receiver-transmitter, is one of the most used device-to-device communication protocols. This article shows how to use a UART as a hardware communication protocol by ...

Dozens of serial data interfaces are used today. Most have been developed for specific applications. A few have become universal, such as I 2 C, CAN, LIN, SPI, Flex, MOST, and I 2 S. Then there’s ...

A given transmission on a communication channel between two machines can occur in several different ways. The transmission is characterized by the direction of the exchanges, the transmission mode, or ...

After the new millennium, the channels between the computer and its peripheral devices have switched from parallel to serial data transfer. Although it would seem that a parallel cable with multiple ...
