What is a key characteristic of synchronous transmission?
What is a key characteristic of synchronous transmission?
- It can operate at different Baud rates for the sender and receiver.
- It requires a shared clock signal between the sender and receiver. (correct)
- It is commonly used in real-time systems that require asynchronous transmission.
- It uses start and stop bits to indicate transmission duration.
What is the primary purpose of the start and stop bits in asynchronous transmission?
What is the primary purpose of the start and stop bits in asynchronous transmission?
- To indicate the duration of a transmission. (correct)
- To provide a clock signal for the transmission.
- To synchronize the Baud rate of the sender and receiver.
- To ensure the transmission is received in the same order it was sent.
