KISS (Keep It Simple, Stupid [1]) is a protocol for communicating with a serial terminal node controller (TNC) device used for amateur radio.This allows the TNC to combine more features into a single device and standardizes communications.
AX.25 (Amateur X.25) is a data link layer protocol originally derived from layer 2 of the X.25 protocol suite and designed for use by amateur radio operators. [1] It is used extensively on amateur packet radio networks.
Above 9600 baud, owners discovered that the serial ports of the computers were not able to handle a continuous flow of data without losing characters. Exchange of the 8250 (having only a one-byte received data buffer) with a 16550—and occasionally patching or setting system software to be aware of the FIFO feature of the new chip—improved ...
A block code (specifically a Hamming code) where redundant bits are added as a block to the end of the initial message A continuous convolutional code where redundant bits are added continuously into the structure of the code word. The two main categories of ECC codes are block codes and convolutional codes.
Several factors allow serial to be clocked at a higher rate: Clock skew between different channels is not an issue (for unclocked asynchronous serial communication links). This can be caused by mismatched wire or conductor lengths. [17] [18] A serial connection requires fewer interconnecting cables (e.g., wires/fibers) and hence occupies less ...
Asynchronous serial communication is a form of serial communication in which the communicating endpoints' interfaces are not continuously synchronized by a common clock signal. Instead of a common synchronization signal, the data stream contains synchronization information in form of start and stop signals, before and after each unit of ...
Data Carrier Detect (DCD) or Carrier Detect (CD) is a control signal present inside an RS-232 serial communications cable that goes between a computer and another device, such as a modem. This signal is a simple "high/low" status bit that is sent from a data communications equipment (DCE) to a data terminal equipment (DTE), i.e., from the modem ...
Synchronous serial communication describes a serial communication protocol in which "data is sent in a continuous stream at constant rate." [1]Synchronous communication requires that the clocks in the transmitting and receiving devices are synchronized – running at the same rate – so the receiver can sample the signal at the same time intervals used by the transmitter.
