Differences and Applications of SPI, UART, and I2C Communication

Differences and Applications of SPI, UART, and I2C Communication

1. Comparison of Communication Speeds: SPI, I2C, UART SPI > I2C > UART 1. Synchronous communication > Asynchronous communication; 2. In synchronous communication, a clock line must connect both ends of the transmission; 3. All are serial communication methods, while parallel communication is used for internal storage communication, such as flash; 4. The suitable transmission … Read more

Practical CANopen Communication with S7-200 SMART: Detailed Bus Technology for Connecting Encoders, Sensor Networks, and Drives

CANopen serves as a “common language” among industrial devices, enabling seamless “communication” between devices from different manufacturers. The S7-200 SMART, equipped with a CANopen module, acts like a proficient “translator” of this language, effortlessly commanding and coordinating various intelligent devices. This technology simplifies complex automation systems, allowing what once required intricate wiring to be connected … Read more

Mastering SPI Driver from Scratch: Practical Communication between STM32 and Sensors

Mastering SPI Driver from Scratch: Practical Communication between STM32 and Sensors

Implementing the SPI (Serial Peripheral Interface) driver on the STM32 microcontroller for communication with sensors. The content includes SPI initialization, data transmission, error handling, debugging techniques, and the use of logic analyzers. The code is based on the STM32Cube HAL library, suitable for the STM32F4 series (such as STM32F407), and uses a generic sensor (like … Read more

I2C: Connecting the Embedded “Digital Nervous System” with Two Wires

I2C: Connecting the Embedded "Digital Nervous System" with Two Wires

Why is I2C so important? In modern electronic devices, communication between chips is ubiquitous. For example, your device has dozens of sensors and chips that need to “talk” to each other—the accelerometer needs to inform the processor of the device’s motion state, the touchscreen needs to relay user click information, and the camera needs to … Read more

Comprehensive Comparison of Communication Protocols IIC and SPI

Comprehensive Comparison of Communication Protocols IIC and SPI

In today’s low-end digital communication applications, we frequently encounter IIC (Inter-Integrated Circuit) and SPI (Serial Peripheral Interface). The reason is that these two communication protocols are very suitable for short-distance, low-speed communication between chips. Philips (for IIC) and Motorola (for SPI) developed these two standard communication protocols based on different backgrounds and market needs. IIC … Read more
