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.

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 ...

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 ...

Designed to drive printers and LCDs, the HV610, a 32-channel, serial-to-parallel converter, provides high-voltage, push-pull outputs in the realm of +50V/-40V. The chip’s outputs can be individually ...

Figure 1. 4:2:2 bit-serial digital distribution model. Click here to see an enlarged diagram. The 4:2:2 bit-parallel digital signal is distributed using a shielded twisted 12-pair (balanced) cable of ...

With more analog-to-digital converters (ADCs) and digital-to-analog converters (DACs) now supporting the latest JESD204B serial interface standard, questions are arising about the best way to ...
