What is Serial Terminal?

Serial Terminal

Serial Terminal is a super useful tool for transferring both ASCII and raw binary data. It's got some cool features like supporting SLIP packet encapsulation and file transfers. With Serial Terminal, you can easily send or receive SLIP packets in either binary or ASCII format.

What is SLIP?

If you haven't heard of SLIP before, it stands for Serial Line Internet Protocol. It's a simple protocol that helps package serial data into neat little packets. Think of it as a way to wrap up information so it can travel smoothly from one place to another! Each packet has start and end markers, which makes everything organized.

Why Use Serial Terminal?

Using Serial Terminal means you don't have to worry about messy data transfers anymore. When you encapsulate your data into packets, there's usually about a 1% increase in size due to the wrapping, plus just an extra 2 bytes for overhead. This means your data stays safe while moving around!
