Bits, Baud and Symbols

Baud is a measurement of transmission speed in asynchronous communication. Because of advances in modem communication technology, this term is frequently misused when describing the data rates in newer devices.

Yesterday I installed KDE4 on my Ubuntu 9.04 netbook,

the procedure to install the K desktop environment is very easy.

The RS232-C and V.24 Standards

In most computer systems, the UART is connected to circuitry that generates signals that comply with the EIA (Electronics Industry Association) RS232-C  (Recommend Standard  number 232 revision C) specification (there is also a CCITT standard named V.24 that mirrors the specifications included in RS232-C). The RS232-C defines the electrical specifications of the serial port; the signals are represented by voltage levels with respect to a common signal ground.

This isn't a very technical article, but for us it is very strange having the snow in Rome so I want to publish some pictures.

Here they are:

The Usart Bla bla bla
A little disquisition about USART and AVR microcontroller

The scope of this serie of articles is to explain the USART in depth and its use with the microcontroller AVR.

A new article will be published each week.
