The circuit is aimed to provide a method for receiving serial data on one pin and transmitting serial data on another with a modulation at the infrared detectors band pass frequency. A tiny 8-pin ...

The simple method described here evaluates a one-wire device that uses pulse-width-encoded communications from a PC serial port. Communications errors such as parity and acknowledge are monitored. 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 ...

A serial monitor is an easy way to debug your projects. As we step through code, it’s nice to see a “Hey! I’m working, moving to next thing!” across the monitor, and not so nice to see nothing – the ...

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 ...

A mouse that plugs into the serial port on a PC. Serial mice used to be the most common type, but were replaced by mice that use the PS/2 and USB ports. Contrast with bus mouse. See mouse. THIS ...
