Modes of Communication
There are three modes of communication
- Half-Duplex
- Data transmission is possible in both directions, but only one direction at a time
- Simplex
- Data transmission is only possible in one direction
- Full-Duplex
- Data transmission is possible in both directions simultaneously
- Half-Duplex
There are two types of transmission in a computer system
- Serial Transmission is...
- When data is sent one bit at a time along the same data line
- This means that serial can travel longer distances than parallel
- and only requires two wires, compared to 8 or 16 in parallel
- This means that serial can travel longer distances than parallel
- When data is sent one bit at a time along the same data line
- Parallel Transmission is...
- When all bits in a byte are sent simultaneously along (8 to 16) separate data lines
- This means that transmission is faster compared to serial transmission
- When all bits in a byte are sent simultaneously along (8 to 16) separate data lines
- Serial Transmission is...
