when both the system are not able to send or receive the data, we need handshaking signals. Pardon? I presume you are talking about the case where data cannot be both transmitted and received simultaneously; ie, the system is not full-duplex. Systems where data can only flow in one direction at a time are known as half-duplex You do not need handshaking signals to implement a half-duplex link; you can, instead, use a software-only protocol that enforces half-duplex operation. eg, the protocol does not allow the next transmission until the previous one has been acknowledged. when u r ... Please do not use SMS abbreviations like that! ...communicating with two microcontrollers/like systems, there's no need of handshaking signals. Microcontrollers and "like systems" have no more or less need of handshaking signals than any other type of system |
