2. USB-to-serial adapter - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/USB-to-serial_adapter

   FTDI US232R : USB to RS-232 cable. A USB-to-serial adapter or simply USB adapter is a type of protocol converter that is used for converting USB data signals to and from serial communications standards (serial ports). Most commonly the USB data signals are converted to either RS-232, RS-485, RS-422, or TTL-level UART serial data.

3. RS-232 - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/RS-232

   Disadvantages of USB compared to RS-232 are that USB is far less immune to electromagnetic interference (EMI) and that maximum cable length defined by standards is much shorter (15 meters for RS-232 versus 3–5 meters for USB, depending on the USB version and use of active cables). RS-232 cable lengths of 2000 meters are possible with ...

4. 16550 UART - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/16550_UART

   It is frequently used to implement the serial port for IBM PC compatible personal computers, where it is often connected to an RS-232 interface for modems, serial mice, printers, and similar peripherals. It was the first serial chip used in the IBM PS/2 line, which were introduced in 1987. [2] [3] [4]

5. FTDI - Wikipedia

   FTDI TTL-232RG: USB to UART cable FTDI FT232RL: USB to UART IC (in SSOP package) Internal die of FTDI FT232RL chip FTDI was founded on 13 March 1992 [3] by its current CEO, Fred Dart (whose initials happen to be "FTD").

6. COM (hardware interface) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/COM_(hardware_interface)

   COM (communication port) [1] [2] is the original, yet still common, name of the serial port interface on PC-compatible computers. It can refer not only to physical ports, but also to emulated ports, such as ports created by Bluetooth or USB adapters.

7. Direct cable connection - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Direct_cable_connection

   A Direct Cable Connection dialog box on Windows 95. Direct Cable Connection (DCC) is a feature of Microsoft Windows that allows a computer to transfer and share files (or connected printers) with another computer, via a connection using either the serial port, parallel port or the infrared port of each computer.

8. Serial port - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Serial_port

   A male D-subminiature connector used for an RS-232 serial port on an IBM PC compatible computer along with the serial port symbol. A serial port is a serial communication interface through which information transfers in or out sequentially one bit at a time. [1]

9. Data Carrier Detect - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Data_Carrier_Detect

   Frequent use of a serial port is for a direct computer-to-computer connection. This requires an adapter called a null modem, which isn't actually a modem in the traditional sense, but rather a connector plug that simply crosses the complementary pins on two serial ports so the two sides can communicate. A null modem typically connects the DTR ...
