TPCI868

16 Channel Asynchronous Serial Interface

Application Information

The TPCI868 is a standard 33 MHz 32 bit PCI module and

provides

16

asynchronous

RS232

serial

interface

channels. The TPCI868 requires the 3.3V PCI power

supply and operates in a 3.3V or 5.0V PCI I/O voltage

environment.

The module uses a 14.7456 MHz crystal oscillator which

allows baud rates up to 921.6 kbaud. All 16 serial

channels can generate interrupts on the PCI bus. The

interrupt status information can be accessed via the 16 bit

wide interrupt status register.

For the serial interface the signals TxD, RxD, RTS#, CTS#

and GND are available on the HD68 front panel connector.

A 10-pin JTAG header is available for XMC module

debugging purposes. All five JTAG signals are routed

directly to the XMC slot.

Software Support (TPCI868-SW-xx) for different operating

systems is available.
