So I'm trying to detect through Visual Basic 6.0 when a voltage change occurs on one of the pins of the serial/parallel port. The whole thing is pretty simple; no data transfer/handshaking/etc needs ...

After a youth spent playing with Amigas and getting into all sorts of trouble on the school computer network, I’ve always had a soft spot in my heart for hardware from the 80s and 90s. This extends ...

Anyone know? I wanted to get something semi-rugged for a friends CNC setup, or at least something that's easy to get a skin for the keyboard. Thinkpad stuff is usually easier to find. I suppose a ...

This application note presents the process of converting a serial output into parallel output using common serial-to-parallel register integrated circuits. The document also discussed the CS556x/7x/8x ...

This converter may help if just the serial port on a personal computer is free, whereas the printer needs a parallel (Centronics) port. It converts a serial 2400 baud signal into a parallel signal.

Getting data to a storage medium requires transmission. Parallel transmission has historically been the preferred way to write data to disk. But at current speeds, serial transmission can be faster ...
