None, Even, Odd,

Mark, Space

A parity bit can be sent

with the data bits to

detect some

transmission errors.

Even: parity bit is 0 if the

num of 1's in the data

bits is even. Odd: parity

bit is 0 if num of 1's in

the data bits is odd.

Mark: parity bit is always

1. Space: Parity bit is

always 0. Mark and

Space Parity do not

allow for error

detection. They can be

used as an additional

data bit.

end of a serial data

packet. (A start bit

indicates the
