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 ...

The HV509 is a 200V, 16-channel serial to parallel converter. The high voltage outputs and the backplane driver are designed to source and sink ±1.0mA. The high voltage outputs are controlled by a ...

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.

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 ...

New applications are driving the need for wideband data converters with increasingly higher sampling frequencies and data resolutions. This article explores how the new JESD204B standard overcomes ...

If you’ve ever looked into low-level parallel port access you may have learned that it only works with actual parallel port hardware, and not with USB parallel port adapters. But here’s a solution ...

i've been looking up on the Sata drives and wonder how does serial beat out parallel? isn't parallel suppose to be faster since the data gets transfered simutanously (sp?) while serial transfers data ...
