Difference between synchronous & asynchronous communication.

Answer Posted / kmaran siddique

The principle difference between the synchronous and
asynchronous modes of transmission is that in the
synchronous case, the receiver uses a clock which is
synchronised to the transmitter clock. Synchronous
transmission has the advantage that the timing information
is accurately aligned to the received data, allowing
operation at much higher data rates. It also has the
advantage that the receiver tracks any clock drift which
may arise (for instance due to temperature variation).
