  2. Baudot code - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Baudot_code

    Baudot developed his first multiplexed telegraph in 1872 [2] [3] and patented it in 1874. [3] [4] In 1876, he changed from a six-bit code to a five-bit code, [3] as suggested by Carl Friedrich Gauss and Wilhelm Weber in 1834, [2] [5] with equal on and off intervals, which allowed for transmission of the Roman alphabet, and included punctuation and control signals.

  4. Émile Baudot - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Émile_Baudot

    Baudot invented his telegraph code in 1870 [3] and patented it in 1874. [4] It was a 5-bit code, with equal on and off intervals, which allowed telegraph transmission of the Roman alphabet, punctuation and control signals. By 1874 or 1875 (various sources give both dates) he had also perfected the electromechanical hardware to transmit his code.

  5. List of binary codes - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_binary_codes

    Examples of seven-bit binary codes are: International Telegraph Alphabet No. 3 – derived from the Moore ARQ code, and also known as the RCA; ASCII – The ubiquitous ASCII code was originally defined as a seven-bit character set. The ASCII article provides a detailed set of equivalent standards and variants.

  7. Telegraphy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Telegraphy

    Early teleprinters used the Baudot code, a five-bit sequential binary code. This was a telegraph code developed for use on the French telegraph using a five-key keyboard (Baudot, 1874). Teleprinters generated the same code from a full alphanumeric keyboard.

  8. Punched tape - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Punched_tape

    Tape for punching was usually 0.00394 inches (0.100 mm) thick. The two most common widths were 11 ⁄ 16 inch (17 mm) for five bit codes, and 1 inch (25 mm) for tapes with six or more bits. Hole spacing was 0.1 inches (2.5 mm) in both directions. Data holes were 0.072 inches (1.8 mm) in diameter; sprocket feed holes were 0.046 inches (1.2 mm). [8]

  9. Teleprinter - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Teleprinter

    "Speed", intended to be roughly comparable to words per minute, is the standard term introduced by Western Union for a mechanical teleprinter data transmission rate using the 5-bit ITA2 code that was popular in the 1940s and for several decades thereafter. Such a machine would send 1 start bit, 5 data bits, and 1.42 stop bits.
