Making a Link

Description

Transmission requires encoding electrical signals and decoding the signals at the destination.

NRZ

0 is Low and 1 is High. Simple, but too many consecutive of the same values may introduce baseline wander.

Baseline Wander

The average value is used to determine if an electrical signal is a high or low value. Too many of one value or the other will adjust a bias into the average. This bias is Baseline wander.

NRZI

At a 1 Transition flip current bit and hold it. Do nothing at zero.
