Data transmission:

  • Data transmission is defined as the method of moving data between two or more devices.
  • The transmitted data can be either in analog form or digital form.
  • The two different methods used to transmit data are as follows:
    • Serial transmission
      • In serial data transmission, each bit of binary data is transmitted at a time sequentially.
    • Parallel transmission
      • In parallel data transmission, all bits of binary data are transmitted at the same time simultaneously.
