Serializer Board
A Serializer Boards an industrial communication interface board that converts multiple parallel digital signals into a high-speed serial data stream for reliable transmission between controllers, sensors, HMIs, servo systems, cameras, or distributed I/O modules. In automation systems, serializer boards help reduce wiring complexity, improve transmission speed, and increase noise immunity. Different manufacturers use different serializer technologies depending on the application
