2. Serial port - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Serial_port

   The individual signals on a serial port are unidirectional and when connecting two devices, the outputs of one device must be connected to the inputs of the other. Devices are divided into two categories: data terminal equipment (DTE) and data circuit-terminating equipment (DCE).

3. RS-232 - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/RS-232

   It is still widely used in industrial communication devices. A serial port complying with the RS-232 standard was once a standard feature of many types of computers. Personal computers used them for connections not only to modems, but also to printers, computer mice, data storage, uninterruptible power supplies, and other peripheral devices.

4. COM (hardware interface) - Wikipedia

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

   COM port (DE-9 connector). 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 .

5. Serial communication - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Serial_communication

   The cables that carry this data (other than "the" serial cable) and the computer ports they plug into are usually referred to with a more specific name, to reduce confusion. Keyboard and mouse cables and ports are almost invariably serial—such as PS/2 port , Apple Desktop Bus and USB .

6. Computer port (hardware) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Computer_port_(hardware)

   Examples of computer connector sockets on various laptops Ports on the back of the Apple Mac Mini (2005). A computer port is a hardware piece on a computer where an electrical connector can be plugged to link the device to external devices, such as another computer, a peripheral device or network equipment.

7. Serial Peripheral Interface - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Serial_Peripheral_Interface

   SPI lends itself to a "bus driver" software design. Software for attached devices is written to call a "bus driver" that handles the actual low-level SPI hardware. This permits the driver code for attached devices to port easily to other hardware or a bit-banging software implementation.

8. Virtual COM port - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Virtual_COM_port

   A software-based virtual serial port presents one or more virtual serial port identifiers on a PC which other applications can see and interact with as if they were real hardware ports, but the data sent and received to these virtual devices is handled by software that manipulates the transmitted and received data to grant greater functionality.

9. List of interface bit rates - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_interface_bit_rates

   On devices like modems, bytes may be more than 8 bits long because they may be individually padded out with additional start and stop bits; the figures below will reflect this. Where channels use line codes (such as Ethernet , Serial ATA , and PCI Express ), quoted rates are for the decoded signal.
