IEEE 1284 SERIAL TO PARALLEL CONVERTER
1. Specifications
Transmission Format— Serial side: Asynchronous, full duplex; Parallel side:
IEEE 1284 BiTronics, supporting Compatibility and
Nibble Modes (switchable)
Data Rates— 9.6, 19.2, 38.4, and 115.2 kbps
Range— Meets capacitive and resistive load requirements of
RS-232 and RS-423
ESD Protection— 4KV
Connectors— Parallel connection: Male 36-pin Centronics
®
or Mini-
Centronics 36; Serial connection: DEC
MMJ jack,
RJ-45 jack, or DB25 (male or female)
