[HECnet] 9600 bps

[David Moylan]

Almost.

 

8N1 means there will be 1 start bit, 8 data bits and 1 stop bit, thus 10 bits per byte.

 

960 characters in 1000 milliseconds.

 

Your math below looks like you worked this out with 9 bits per byte.

 

But in the bigger picture yes – approximately one character per millisecond.

 

Cheers, Wiz!!

A terminal running at 9600 baud, 8N1, would display/process one character approximately every millisecond (1066.6666 characters in 1000 milliseconds).

Is this math correct?
