Terminology and circuit diagram
– A bus system for transferring data
between several participants via joint
transmission path.
In its most simple form, proto
col can be
defined the rules deter
mining the
structure, meaning and synchronisation of
communication.
–
In electronic engineering, control line is
a connection (cable, wire) between one
transmitter and one receiver. Communication
is either bidirectional (DALI) just uni
directional (DSI)
