Interface RS-232
The RS-232 specification allows for reliable data transmission from one transmitter to one receiver at data rates of up to 20 kbps over relatively short distances (up to 50 feet). On more recent RS-232 transceiver chips, data rates of up to 1 Mbps are achievable over shorter distances (up to 5 feet). The most common applications for RS-232 transceivers are computers and peripherals, mobile phone data cables, and diagnostic data ports.
