This converter may help if just the serial port on a personal computer is free, whereas the printer needs a parallel (Centronics) port. It converts a serial 2400 baud signal into a parallel signal.

The HV509 is a 200V, 16-channel serial to parallel converter. The high voltage outputs and the backplane driver are designed to source and sink ±1.0mA. The high voltage outputs are controlled by a ...

After a youth spent playing with Amigas and getting into all sorts of trouble on the school computer network, I’ve always had a soft spot in my heart for hardware from the 80s and 90s. This extends ...

Designed to drive printers and LCDs, the HV610, a 32-channel, serial-to-parallel converter, provides high-voltage, push-pull outputs in the realm of +50V/-40V. The chip’s outputs can be individually ...

The MAX3950 is designed to convert 10-Gbps serial data to 16-bit-wide, 622-Mbps parallel data. Its ability to handle FEC data rates make the MAX3950 ideal for a variety of applications in SDH/SONET ...

Anyone know? I wanted to get something semi-rugged for a friends CNC setup, or at least something that's easy to get a skin for the keyboard. Thinkpad stuff is usually easier to find. I suppose a ...

Getting data to a storage medium requires transmission. Parallel transmission has historically been the preferred way to write data to disk. But at current speeds, serial transmission can be faster ...
