Digital Interfaces • An interface links two devices • Interface Standards define: – mechanical specifications - how many wires & connector type – electrical specifications - frequency, amplitude and phase of signal – functional - what does each wire do? – Procedural – how & when to perform functions Serial vs. Parallel • In serial transmission one bit is sent with each clock pulse. • Two types of serial transmission: – asynchronous – synchronous • In parallel transmission multiple bits are sent with each clock pulse.
