Hints MD-21 D-sub The 20mA current loop interface, or TTY as it is sometimes known, is a popular industrial communications standard. The system relies on a cur- rent generator running on both the transmit and receive circuits. On each circuit it is important to have only one current generator supplying cur- rent into that circuit.
