Serial Attached SCSI
Serial Attached SCSI (SAS) is a point-to-point serial storage interface carrying SCSI commands between host controllers and drives, approved as the successor to parallel SCSI in 2003.
Serial communication
Serial communication, also called serial transmission, transfers digital data one bit at a time over a single path, as in UART, SPI, I2C, and RS-485 links.
Serial digital interface
The serial digital interface (SDI) is a family of SMPTE standards carrying uncompressed digital video, embedded audio, and ancillary data over a single coaxial cable.
Serial manipulator
A serial manipulator is a robotic arm built as an open chain of links and joints, ending in a gripper or tool, with a large workspace.
Serial number
A serial number is an identifier assigned to one individual unit of a product and kept with it for its lifetime, unlike a part or batch number.
Serial Peripheral Interface
Serial Peripheral Interface (SPI) is a synchronous, full-duplex serial bus protocol developed by Motorola in the 1980s, widely used to connect sensors, memory, and displays in embedded systems.
Serial port
A serial port, also known as a COM port, is a computer interface that transfers data one bit at a time, typically over an RS-232 connection.
Serial presence detect
Serial presence detect (SPD) is a standardized block of data in an EEPROM on a DRAM memory module, read by the BIOS at startup to configure memory.
Serial Shipping Container Code
The Serial Shipping Container Code (SSCC) is an 18-digit GS1 identification number that uniquely identifies a logistic unit, such as a case, pallet, or parcel, throughout transport and storage.
Serialization
Serialization, also called object or data serialization, is the process of converting a data structure or object into bytes for storage or transmission, with deserialization reconstructing it.
