Introduction to RS-232 Serial Port Data transmission between computers or between a computer and a terminal typically employs two methods: serial communication and parallel communication. Serial communication is widely adopted due to its lower cost and fewer lines used, especially in remote transmission, which avoids inconsistencies caused by multiple lines. In serial communication, both parties … Read more
Serial communication is the most basic communication method that electrical engineers face, with RS-232 being the simplest of them. Many beginners often get confused about the relationship and differences between UART and RS-232, RS-422, and RS-485. This article will discuss the understanding of these concepts to help clarify their relationships. If we compare serial communication … Read more
Abstract: This article introduces three common serial data standards: RS-232, RS-422, and RS-485, according to their technical specifications and electrical interfaces. It discusses cable termination techniques, the use of multiple loads, RS-232 daisy chain connections, conversion from RS-232 to RS-485, conversion from RS-485 to RS-232, and powering RS-485 conversion from RS-232 ports. Introduction “The wonderful … Read more

Point: 1. The serial port and COM port refer to physical interface types (hardware). TTL, RS-232, and RS-485 refer to signal level standards (electrical signals). 2. When connecting devices, generally only GND, RX, and TX are connected. The Vcc or +3.3V power line is usually not connected to avoid conflicts with the power supply of … Read more
What are the differences between serial ports, COM ports, TTL, RS-232, and RS-485? We often encounter these in our projects, so let’s summarize them. 1. Serial ports and COM ports refer to the physical interface form (hardware). TTL, RS-232, and RS-485 refer to the level standards (electrical signals). 2. When connecting devices, generally only GND, … Read more
RS-232, RS-422, and RS-485 are all serial data interface standards. RS-232 is the most widely used serial interface for PC communication. RS-232 is defined as a single-ended standard that increases communication distance in low-speed serial communication. RS-232 uses an unbalanced transmission method, known as single-ended communication, while the RJ45 interface is typically used for data … Read more
RS-232 RS-232-C is a serial physical interface standard established by the Electronic Industry Association (EIA) in the United States. RS is the abbreviation for “Recommended Standard”, 232 is the identifier number, and C indicates the number of revisions. Its full name is “Serial Binary Data Exchange Interface Technology Standard between Data Terminal Equipment (DTE) and … Read more
