EET 450 - Advanced Digital Chapter 21 Serial Ports
2
Serial Communications Contrasting with parallel communications - the individual bits are transmitted one at a time. Uses time division multiplexing versus space division multiplexing
3
Modern Serial Options classic - RS 232 ACCESS.bus IrDA optical Universal Serial bus P1394
4
Transfer rate/characteristics RS232 - standard for years max rate 115,200 bps uses twisted pair 1 device per port ACCESS.bus - inexpensive option max rate 100 Kbps 4-wire shielded cable 125 devices per port
5
IrDA - optical serial version 4 Mbps no cable 126 devices USB - high speed serial 12 Mbps Special 4-wire cable 127 devices
6
IEEE 1394 - firewire 100 Mbps Special 6-wire cable 16 devices per port
7
Basic Serial Communications Clocking Synchronous communications bits are synchronized to a separate clock signal Asynchronous Bits are time from the start of a period - no universal clock Isosynchronous communications time critical data
8
Serial Communications Frames bits are collected into frames of data frame is delineated with stop/start bits Within the frame is data and error correction information.
9
Serial Communications Each byte of data is encapsulated in a frame. Provides timing & error checking Packets - blocks of bytes can be compiled into a packet of data. For example AddressDescriptionDataError Chk
10
Packets Packets range in size from a few bytes to a few kbytes. (256-2048 per text) May include routing information, commands, and error checking (CRC) This is overhead that decreases overall throughput
11
RS-232C The traditional COM port Port speeds are restricted by internal clock of PC 150:300:600:1200:2400:4800:9600 19200:38400:57600:115200 physical connection Standard connectors DB25 DB9
12
RS-232C Signals include Transmit Data from the Data Terminal Equipment Receive Data to the DTE (from DCE) Data Terminal Ready From DTE to DCE - ready to receive
13
RS-232C Data Set Ready DSR - to DTE from DCE - ready Request to send RTS - opposite of DSR Clear to send CTS to DTE opposite of DTR
14
RS-232C Carrier Detect For modem signaling - the modem carrier signal is detected Ring Indicator Again for modems - indicates a ring signal on incoming line
15
Flow Control Two methods of controlling the sending/receiving of data on a serial connection. Hardware - uses signal wires from physical layer above Software - uses control signals - either XON/XOFF or ETX/ACK
16
Cables designed to run on unshielded twisted pair (UTP) Shielded cable can extend effective range Wiring depends on flow control Software - 3 wires needed (XMIT/RCV/Ground) Hardware - all wires as above Connectors - DB25 or DB9 (m/f)
17
Cables Crossover cable uses available signals to lie to the ports - allows for software control only. Null Modem is the common name, though this is more properly a test plug.
18
Chips UART - Universal Asynchronous Receive r/Transmitter 8250 16450 16550
19
Access.bus Allows 125 devices to a single port Simple - Slow Software flow control Three layers Physical Base Application
20
IrDA Infrared Developers Association Laptop standard Adaptec Airport Data Rates 9600 bps - 4 Mbps
21
Universal Serial Bus USB - now the standard on most systems 12Mbps capable (1.5Mbps in a lower speed) Connects up to 127 devices Hub/function architecture Cable special 4 wire cable Vcc, Ground, +/- data
22
IEEE-1394 Used by AppleCorp as Firewire (note - although many in the industry have attributed the development of IEEE-1394 to Apple Corporation, this is not entirely true.) Wiring - 6 wire copper connection (expect to become glass)
23
IEEE-1394 100Mbps - with upgrades to 200Mbps and 400Mbps expected Can (is) used to connect everything to a computer system - monitor, printer, hard disk drives, CDRoms, etc.
