Communication Interface

There are two ways in which a microprocessor can connect with outside world or other memory systems.

Serial Communication Interface:
In serial communication interface, the interface gets a single byte of data from the microprocessor and sends it bit by bit to other system serially (or) the interface receives data bit by bit serially from the external systems and converts the data into a single byte and transfers it to the microprocessor.

Parallel Communication Interface:
This interface gets a byte of data from microprocessor and sends it bit by bit to the other systems in simultaneous (or) parallel fashion. The interface also receives data bit by bit simultaneously from the external system and converts the data into a single byte and transfers it to microprocessor.
