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 ...

More and more vendors with more and more products are joining the long and steady march to migrate from parallel to serial chip, board and system interfaces. And they’re doing so with good reason. A ...

A popular means of reducing size and cost for any embedded design is to use a communication bus with fewer I/O pins. Moving from a parallel bus to a serial bus provides significant size and cost ...

For years, parallel communication schemes offered clear advantages for moving data quickly from chip to chip, board to board or system to system. But when I/O clock-frequency rates passed 66 MHz, ...

Here is a collection of content on the various serial I/O protocols and the interfaces for converting parallel 8-16-32-bit I/O into a more compact 1-2 bit serial form used in embedded systems design.

Although incorporating high-speed serial buses into embedded systems solves many problems, the design and validation processes differ and aren't well understood. As technology progresses, the ...

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 ...
