EIA STANDARDS
The Electronic Industry Association (EIA)
developed several standards of data
transmission which are revised and up-
dated in order to meet the requirements
of the industry. In data processing, there
are two basic means of communicating
between systems and components. The
RS--232 standard was first introduced in
1962 and, since that time, has become an
industry standard. The RS-232 is a
relatively slow data exchange proto-
col, with a maximum baud rate of only
20kbps, which can be transmitted over a
maximum copper wire cable length of 50
feet. The SP211EH/213EH series of data
communications interface products have
been designed to meet both the EIA protocol
standards, and the needs of the industry.
