COM (hardware Interface)
COM (communication port) is the original, yet still common, name of the serial port interface on IBM PC compatible, PC-compatible computers. It can refer not only to physical ports, but also to Hardware emulation, emulated ports, such as ports created by Bluetooth or USB adapters. History The name for the COM port started with the original IBM PC. IBM had called the four well-defined communication RS-232 ports the "COM" ports, starting from COM1 through COM4. In BASICA and PC DOS you can open these ports as "COM1:" through "COM4:", and all PC compatibles using MS-DOS used the same denotation. Most PC-compatible computers in the 1980s and 1990s had one or two COM ports. By 2007, most computers shipped with only one or no physical COM ports. Today, few consumer-grade PC-compatible computers include COM ports, though some of them do still include a COM Pin header, header on the motherboard. After the RS-232 COM port was removed from most consumer-grade computers, an external USB-t ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
