KembaraXtra-Computer Terms – asynchronous transmission:
Asynchronous transmission is a method of data communication in which information is sent intermittently rather than as a continuous stream. In this form of transmission, data is typically transmitted one character at a time. Each character is framed with special bits that signal its beginning and end so the receiving device can correctly interpret the data. A start bit indicates the beginning of the character, followed by the bits that represent the character itself, sometimes including a parity bit used for error checking, and finally one or more stop bits to mark the end of the character. This method allows communication devices such as modems to exchange data without requiring synchronized timing signals between the sender and receiver.
