require lower speeds

Flow Control

None

Hardware RTS/CTS

Flow control can prevent data loss from buffer overflow.
When sending data, if the receiving buffers are full, a

'stop' signal can be sent to stop the data flow. Once the
buffers are empty, a 'start' signal can be sent to re-

start the flow. Hardware flow control uses two wires to
send start/stop signals
