Interface

 An interface is the port (physical

circuit) through which signals are
sent or received from one system
or subsystems to others. There is
no universal interface, but there
are different standards (For
example the USB interface) that
establish specific technical
specifications (common
characteristics), so that
interconnection is only possible
using the same interface at origin
and destination.

Peripheral.

 In computer science, peripheral is the generic

denomination to designate the device or
auxiliary and independent device connected to
the central processing unit of a computer.

 Peripherals are the units or hardware devices

through which the computer communicates
with the outside, and also the systems that
store or store the information, serving as
auxiliary memory of the main memory.

 It is considered peripheral to the set of

devices that without belonging to the
fundamental nucleus of the computer,
formed by the central processing unit
(CPU) and the central memory, allow
input / output operations
complementary to the data process
that performs the CPU. These three
basic units in a computer, CPU, -Addresses, to select the
central memory and the input / output address of the data or the
subsystem, are communicated with peripheral to which you want to
each other by three buses or access.
communication channels: -Control, basically to select the
operation to be performed on
the data (mainly reading, writing
or modification).
-Data, where the data circulates.

Communication with Peripherals

 Communication with peripherals.

Computers communicate with peripherals
through communication protocols. These
protocols allow standardization in the
industry for the development of peripherals
for these machines.
 Communication protocols are processes
through which the CPU can communicate
with peripherals.

Forms of Communication.
There are two forms of communication of
computers with their peripherals:
 -Serial communication
 -Parallel Communication
Serial communication.
- Occurs in those peripheral devices that
can not handle more than one bit of data at
a given time.
- It requires cable and it is very slow.
- Example: Modems
Parallel Communication:
- Transfer more than one bit of data
in the same time.
- N-bits are transmitted at the
same instant in time by n -
cables.
- It is very fast but requires many
cables and is used over short
distances.
Example: Input and output devices,
DMA controllers.

Connection in series and parallel.

 The Serial port is used to connect slow peripherals such as

the modem and the mouse.The data is transmitted
successively only in one data line. The connections are
made with plugs from NINE TO TWENTY-FIVE pins. The
máximum is four serial ports on a PC.
 The Parallel port has a higher data transfer speed (300
KB/sec) tan the serial port, in which devices that supply or
need a lot of data are connected quickly, such as the
printer, external disk drives, scanners.
