The primary purpose is to compensate for speed differences between processing units and external devices, preventing data loss during transfer operations and enabling reliable communication in industrial automation systems.
They provide temporary storage that allows retransmission of data if errors occur, implement flow control to prevent overrun/underrun conditions, and enable error checking mechanisms before data processing or transmission.
Buffer overflow typically triggers an interrupt or status flag, causing the system to pause data transmission, implement error recovery procedures, or activate backup storage mechanisms to prevent data loss.
