What is RS-232? Why was RS-232 important? Take our poll and see what others think of RS-232. RS-232 (Recommended Standard 232) was introduced in 1960 for serial communication transmission of data.

Even though there are faster and easier ways to connect data devices, many older protocols, particularly RS-232, live on. I have always relied on two things when dealing with RS-232: my LED data ...

In the early days of personal computers, incorporation of one or two (or more) RS-232 serial ports as general purpose I/O adaptors was common practice. Recently, this “vintage” standard has been ...

The hot-swap serial-interface circuit in Figure 1 allows two computers to see all of the communication between each computer and each device on the communication network for that serial port. This ...

i'm trying to buy a USB to RS-232 adapter for use with my M1 Mac Mini, but this is turning out to be a lot more complicated than i thought it would be. the most common devices seem to be based on ...

I need to connect to devices that use an rs-232 connection, but I was wondering if I could use cat5 cable instead of rs-232 cable since I don't have rs-232 cable but plenty of cat5. The connection ...
