What is a serial port? Serial ports are generally built into the motherboard. This is why the connectors behind the casing that are connected to the motherboard by a wire cable can be used to connect ...

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 ...

For PCI bus interfacing, the OX16PC1952 brings together a PCI interface, two high performance serial channels, and a parallel port in one compact, 128-pin TQFP package. This integrated bridge device ...

Early microcomputers typically consisted of a half dozen (or more) circuit boards--plugged into a backplane--that implemented the central processor unit (CPU), memory, disk controllers and ...

This application note presents the process of converting a serial output into parallel output using common serial-to-parallel register integrated circuits. The document also discussed the CS556x/7x/8x ...

This converter may help if just the serial port on a personal computer is free, whereas the printer needs a parallel (Centronics) port. It converts a serial 2400 baud signal into a parallel signal.

Anyone know? I wanted to get something semi-rugged for a friends CNC setup, or at least something that's easy to get a skin for the keyboard. Thinkpad stuff is usually easier to find. I suppose a ...

The circuit shown in Figure 1 provides a simple, low-power means of digitizing analog signals and sending the data directly to a PC's serial port where it can easily be read, analyzed, and stored. The ...

You all know that there are a number of serial ports in your personal computer. The serial ports act as interface which allows transfer of information between the computers. The first serial port is ...
