TRANSMISSION MODES
Data transmission modes
• The transmission of binary data across a
link can be accomplished in either parallel
or serial mode
mode..
• In parallel mode, multiple bits are sent with
each clock tick
tick..
• In serial mode, 1 bit is sent with each clock
tick..
tick
• While there is only one way to send parallel
data, there are two subclasses of serial
transmission: asynchronous and
synchronous..

Asynchronous Transmission
Figure 4 Asynchronous transmission
• In asynchronous transmission, we
send 1 start bit(s) (0) at the beginning
and 1 or more stop bits (1s) at the end
of each byte.
• In addition to the control data small
gaps are inserted between each
chunk to distinguish each group.
• Slower data rate

Synchronous Transmission
Asynchronous transmission
• In synchronous transmission, we send bits one
after another without start or stop bits or gaps.
• Synchronous transmission sends data as one long
bit stream or block of data.
• Each bit is sent one after the other.
• It is the responsibility of the receiver to group the
bits.
• The receiver counts the bits and reconstructs
bytes.
• Needs clock signal between the sender and the
receiver

Synchronous Transmission
Synchronous transmission
• It is essential that timing is maintained between
sender and receiver as there are no start and stop
bits and no gaps.
• Needs clock signal between the sender and the
receiver
• Requires master/slave configuration. The master
provides the timing signal.
• Faster data rate compared to asynchronous
transmission as there are no start and stop bits
