  • Advantages of Serial Transmission over Parallel transmission
    • Cheaper
      • Less wires needed
      • Less complex and size in transmitting and receiving interfaces
    • Skew
      • Develops in parallel transmission
        • Each wire has slightly different properties
          • Results in different bits travelling at different speeds
    • Crosstalk
      • Develops in parallel transmission
        • Electromagnetic interference between wires
      • Cannot develop in serial transmission
        • Skew
          • Develops in parallel transmission
            • Each wire has slightly different properties
              • Results in different bits travelling at different speeds
    • Distance
      • Long distances prefer serial transmission
        • Cost implications regarding parallel transmission
        • Difficulties in synchronising signals using parallel transmission over a long distance
