The standard interface for RS232 Chinese name asynchronous transmission requires that both parties of communication adopt a standard interface during serial communication, so that different devices can be conveniently connected for communication. The RS-232-C interface (also known as EIARS-232-C) is one of the most commonly used serial communication interfaces. (-C in "RS-232-C" merely represents a version of RS-232 and is therefore the same for short as "RS-232").
Which was a standard for serial communications commonly established in 1970 by the united states Electronics Industry Association (EIA) with bell systems, modem manufacturers, and computer terminal manufacturers. Its full name is "serial binary data exchange interface technology standard between Data Terminal Equipment (DTE) and Data Communication Equipment (DCE)" which specifies that a 25-pin DB-25 connector is used, the signal content of each pin of the connector is specified, and the levels of the various signals are also specified. Later IBM's PC reduced RS232 to DB-9 connector, becoming a de facto standard. Whereas the RS-232 port of industrial control typically uses only RXD, TXD, GND wires.
It should be noted that in this specification, relational terms such as first and second, and the like are used solely to distinguish one entity or action from another entity or action without necessarily requiring or implying any actual such relationship or order between such entities or actions. Moreover, the terms "comprises," "comprising," or any other variation thereof, are intended to cover a non-exclusive inclusion, such that a process, method, article, or apparatus that comprises a list of elements does not include only those elements but may include other elements not expressly listed or inherent to such process, method, article, or apparatus. Without further limitation, an element defined by the phrase "comprising one … …" does not exclude the presence of other like elements in a process, method, article, or apparatus that comprises the element.
