Abstract
In a serial interface unit (10) for the transmission and reception of data under the control of clock signals, the data are output from a data source to a data output (24) via an output driver (22). A transmit monitor (52) compares the data supplied by the data source with the data received at the data output (24) via the output driver (22). The transmit monitor outputs an error signal when the data so compared do not coincide.
