From the development trends of industrial technology in recent years, the widespread application and popularization of Ethernet in the industrial field is an undeniable fact. As mentioned in the previous article “The Evolution of Industrial Bus to Ethernet,” the driving force comes from the optimization of system costs brought about by the universality and consistency … Read more
Communication between electronic devices is like communication between humans; both parties need to speak the same language. In electronic products, these languages are called communication protocols. Previously, articles on SPI, UART, and I2C communication were shared separately. This article compares them. Serial vs Parallel Electronic devices communicate by sending data bits to each other. A … Read more
Click on the blue text above to follow us I2C, SPI, and UART are the three most commonly used serial communication protocols for embedded IoT terminals. This article briefly introduces the principles of UART, I2C, and SPI serial bus communication. For more detailed explanations, please see the following three articles. Understand I2C Bus Communication in … Read more
IntroductionIn the fields of electronics and digital communication, the SPI (Serial Peripheral Interface) protocol stands out for its flexibility and speed. However, when it comes to connecting multiple devices, traditional SPI configurations can quickly become cumbersome in terms of wiring and resource management. This is where the concept of Daisy Chain SPI emerges, providing an … Read more
