Study Notes
Asynchronous Communication
- An optional Parity bit can be included in a frame to help detect errors during transmission
- The parity bit ensures that the number of bits with a value of 1 is either even or odd, depending on the parity scheme used
- If the parity does not match upon reception, the receiver can identify that an error has occurred
- The primary challenge in asynchronous communication is maintaining synchronization between the incoming data stream and the receiver
- The receiver must sample the incoming data at specific intervals, typically determined by the baud rate
- This sampling is critical for accurately interpreting the data being received
Synchronous Connections
- Data is transmitted in larger frames that consist of:
- Header and Trailer Flags
- Control information: metadata that helps manage data flow and ensure proper communication between devices
- Optional Address Information
- Error Detection Code
- Data
- Synchronous connections are more efficient than asynchronous connections
- Larger frames reduce the overhead associated with transmitting multiple smaller packets
- Shared clock signals ensure that both the sender and receiver are aligned in terms of timing
Functional Component
- Describes operational aspects of the interface
- Data Formats specify:
- format of the data being transmitted
- encoding schemes
- data structures
Procedural Component
- Encompasses the protocols and procedures that govern the operation of the interface
- Includes communication protocols, initialization procedures, maintenance, and diagnostics
EIA-232F Overview
- Supports full-duplex communication, allowing data to be transmitted and received simultaneously.
- Used in various legacy applications including:
- industrial equipment
- point-of-sale systems
- Digital data can be transmitted using Analog signals, which are modulated to represent data
- Uses various modulation techniques for data transmission, including Amplitude Modulation (AM) and Frequency Modulation (FM)
Transmitting Digital Data with Digital Signals
- Digital data is encoded into a format that can be easily processed by digital devices.
- Encoding schemes include:
- NRZ-L (Non-Return-to-Zero Level)
- NRZI (Non-Return-to-Zero Inverted)
- Manchester Encoding
- Differential Manchester Encoding
- Bipolar AMI (Alternate Mark Inversion)
- 4B/5B Encoding
Transmitting Digital Data with Discrete Analog Signals
- Uses techniques to represent digital information through variations in analog signals.
