Questions tagged [baud-rate]

"baud-rate" refers to the number of signal or symbol changes that occur per unit time. This tag is for questions that get, set, or otherwise manipulate the baud rate.

In telecommunications and electronics, baud (/ˈbɔːd/, unit symbol "Bd") means symbols per second or pulses per second. A "symbol" being one of several voltage, frequency, or phase changes.

Thus a "baud-rate" refers to the number of signal or symbol changes that occur over time—most commonly per second. A baud rate differs from a bit-rate in that a single symbol transition (baud) can communicate more than one bit during the interval, whereas a bit rate is a single bit per interval.

This tag is OS and Language independent, as long as there's a mechanism for manipulating the serial data rate this tag can apply.

Why In Manchester encoding, the bit rate is half of the baud rate?

I think baud rate is the rate of the symbols, and if each symbol contains n bit, then the bit rate should be n x baud rate In Ethernet( Manchester encoding) ,if bit rate is half of the baud rate, then a symbol contains 1/2 bit ? As far as I know,…

Why are the input and output baud rates always the same?

I've got a simple program setting the baud rate for a serial (RS232) port. I'm setting the input and output rates independently using the cfsetospeed() and cfsetispeed() functions. As per the man page, this should be possible provided I use these…

How are serial ports set to 19200 baud in x86 assembly?

I'm supposed to modify an application written in 16-bit assembly which uses serial port. One of the objectives is to support speed of 19200 baud. Most of the resources I've read (for example this) on the Internet show the way of doing it using INT…
