  2. Universal synchronous and asynchronous receiver-transmitter

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Universal_synchronous_and...

    Those modems are obsolete, having been replaced by modems which convert asynchronous data to synchronous forms, but similar synchronous telecommunications protocols survive in numerous block-oriented technologies such as the widely used IEEE 802.2 (Ethernet) link-level protocol. USARTs are still sometimes integrated with MCUs.

    This was an early example of a medium-scale integrated circuit. Another popular chip was the SCN2651 from the Signetics 2650 family. An example of an early 1980s UART was the National Semiconductor 8250, which was used in the original IBM PC's Asynchronous Communications Adapter card. [5] In the 1990s, newer UARTs were developed with on-chip ...

    A packet-switched network transmits data that is divided into units called packets.A packet comprises a header (which describes the packet) and a payload (the data). The Internet is a packet-switched network, and most of the protocols in this list are designed for its protocol stack, the IP protocol suite.

    For example, the UART-based FlexWire protocol begins each frame with a 'U' (0x55) sync byte. FlexWire receivers use the sync byte to precisely set their UART bit-clock frequency without a high-precision oscillator. [4] For example, the Ethernet preamble contains 56 bits of alternating 1 and 0 bits for synchronizing bit clocks.

  6. 16550 UART - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/16550_UART

    The 16550 UART (universal asynchronous receiver-transmitter) is an integrated circuit designed for implementing the interface for serial communications. The corrected -A version was released in 1987 by National Semiconductor . [ 1 ]

  7. Software flow control - Wikipedia

    For example, one may imagine a computer sending data to a slow printer. Since the computer is faster at sending data than the printer can print it, the printer falls behind and approaches a situation where it would be overwhelmed by the data. The printer reacts to this situation by sending XOFF to the computer, which temporarily stops sending data.

  8. Byte-oriented protocol - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Byte-oriented_protocol

    Byte-oriented framing protocol is "a communications protocol in which full bytes are used as control codes. Also known as character-oriented protocol." [1] For example UART communication is byte-oriented. The term "character-oriented" is deprecated, [by whom?] since the notion of character has changed. An ASCII character fits to one byte (octet ...

  9. Asynchronous serial communication - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Asynchronous_serial...

    Asynchronous start-stop is the lower data-link layer used to connect computers to modems for many dial-up Internet access applications, using a second (encapsulating) data link framing protocol such as PPP to create packets made up out of asynchronous serial characters. The most common physical layer interface used is RS-232D.
