The operation and description of the UART serial interface through USB is discussed in this application note. In addition, the firmware application code in C language, containing communication ...

FTDI-gate wasn’t great for anybody, and now with hardware hobbyists and technological tinkerers moving away from the most popular USB to serial adapter, some other chip has to fill the void. The ...

Before 2000, desktop printers for business had one of two interfaces: serial and parallel. The type of interface dictated the type of cable you used to connect the printer to the PC and how fast the ...

We’re always excited to get a new chip or SIM card to interface, but our enthusiasm is often dampened by the prototyping process. Interfacing any chip usually means breadboarding a circuit, writing ...

A socket that connects to a serial interface (one bit following another over one line). Serial ports are widely used by sensors for data acquisition, and they were standard on early computers for ...

The SAF1760 is a Hi-Speed Universal Serial Bus (USB) host controller with a generic processor interface. It integrates one Enhanced Host Controller Interface (EHCI), one Transaction Translator (TT) ...

At some point, you’ll need to test that interface. Before testing, though, you should consider these five key factors. Practically everything you design these days includes some kind of serial ...

USB Type-A, USB Type-C, and USB Type-B ports are used in all sorts of devices nowadays, but they're not all made the same, and some are becoming less common.

Like all technology, USB has evolved over time. Despite being a “Universal” Serial Bus, in its 18-or-so years on the market it has spawned multiple versions with different connection speeds and many, ...
