Abstract

A generalized data interface for transmission of asynchronous data from a transmitting terminal to a receiving terminal at a different transmission rate is described. In accordance with the present invention, the high data transmission rates normally associated with synchronous transmission are achievable between asynchronous data terminals using novel asynchronous to synchronous and synchronous to asynchronous converters.
