Line 35: On serial mice, the DTR line (along with RTS) is typically used to provide power to the mouse. The [[DE-9]] serial port on the PC does not provide any power pins. The mouse driver holds the DTR and RTS lines high at all times so that the mouse may steal power for its own use. ==References== <references/>
