Peripheral expansion is a high-power-consuming and highly complex system without knowing the communication protocols. All of the embedded systems make use of serial communication interfaces to communicate with the peripherals. Among them, the most common communication protocols in microcontroller development...
However, the variety of devices we can interface to our microcontroller can be drastically increased when we start working with serial communications. In this chapter, we will look at the serial communication protocols of UART, SPI, and I2C. Understanding these protocols will expand the interfacing...
In the vast system of embedded applications, no microcontroller can perform all the activities by itself. At some stage of time, it has to communicate to other devices to share information, there are manydifferent types of communication protocolsto share these informations, but the most used ones...
I2C (or IIC) stands for Inter-IC Communication and is one of the popular microcontroller communications protocols. I2C is typically used to communicate with sensors but finds uses in many other applications as well. I2C is a synchronous protocol, meaning that it has a clock line (for more inf...
When the UART receiver finishes receiving a byte and receives the stop bit signal, it will save the just received data to the UART data register of the microcontroller and generate a receive flag bit. Polling the flag bit will This byte of data can be received. However, in single-chip ...
“The single biggest problem in communication is the illusion that it has taken place.” —George Bernard Shaw Communication protocol plays a big role in organizing communication between devices. It is designed in different ways based on system requirements, and these protocols have a specific rule...
Types of Communication Protocols There are two types of communication protocols which are classified below: Inter System Protocol Intra System Protocol Inter System Protocol The inter-system protocol using to communicate the two different devices. Like communication between computer to microcontroller kit. ...
Distributed systems require protocols for communication between microcontrollers. Controller Area Networks (CAN) and Serial Peripheral Interfaces (SPI) are two of the most common such protocols. The beauty of using multiple processors in a single system is that the timing requirements of one processor ...
Communication protocol plays a big role in organizing communication between devices. It is designed in different ways based on system requirements, and these protocols have specific, agreed-upon rules to achieve successful communication. You’ve probably used I2C if you’ve ever built...
PuTTY is a client program for the SSH, Telnet and Rlogin network protocols. Commands from the clients can be sent to the server through internet via serial communication port. PuTTY can work on Windows and Linux platforms and can be downloaded from http://www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/~sg...
