About Interface - Drivers, Receivers, Transceivers
Drivers, receivers, and transceivers are interface components used in serial communication systems to drive signals onto communication lines, receive signals from the lines, or perform both functions simultaneously. Drivers amplify and shape signals for transmission, while receivers detect and decode incoming signals. Transceivers integrate both driver and receiver functions into a single device, allowing bidirectional communication over a shared communication channel. These interface components are essential in UART, SPI, I2C, and other serial communication protocols used in embedded systems, industrial automation, and telecommunications.
