= Automatic baud rate detection
{wiki=Automatic_baud_rate_detection}
Automatic baud rate detection is a feature used in serial communication protocols that allows a device to automatically determine the baud rate (the speed of data transmission expressed in bits per second) of incoming data signals without needing to pre-configure the communication parameters. This is particularly useful in scenarios where devices need to communicate over serial links and the specific baud rate is not known in advance. \#\#\# How it Works 1. **Data Sampling:** The receiving device samples the incoming data signal for a period of time.
