1 General Information The Quatech, Inc. DSCLP-200/300 (two-port) and SSCLP-200/300 (one-port) provide RS-422 or RS-485 asynchronous serial communication interfaces for IBM-compatible personal computer systems using the PCI expansion bus. For general purposes, this manual usually makes reference only to the DSCLP-200/300. All information pertains eq[...]

2 Hardware Configuration The DSCLP-200/300 is automatically configured at boot time by the computer's BIOS or operating system. There are no required switches or jumpers to set for installation. This chapter lists a number of optional jumper settings that control various hardware features. Jumpers J1-J4, located in a column near the D-type con[...]

2.2 Signal Connections The DSCLP-200/300 provides each of two serial ports with four differential signal pairs: TxD, RxD, AUXOUT, and AUXIN. TxD and RxD are always present at the connector. The AUXOUT and AUXIN signals can be used to support RTS/CTS handshaking, external clocking, or external signal loopback. The factory default configuration, as s[...]

Install the DSCLP-200/300 in any empty PCI expansion slot. The board should be sec[...]

4 Address Map and Special Registers This chapter explains how the two UARTs and special registers are addressed, as well as the layout of those registers. This material will be of interest to programmers writing driver software for the DSCLP-200/300. 4.1 Base Address and Interrupt Level (IRQ) The base address and IRQ used by the DSCLP-200/300 are d[...]

4.2 Enabling the Special Registers The DSCLP-200/300 contains two unique registers, an Interrupt Status Register and an Options Register. These registers are enabled when the SPAD jumper (J13) is removed (factory default). They replace the UART Scratchpad Register on accesses to register address 7. The Interrupt Status Register and Options Register[...]

4.4 Quatech Modem Control Register The Quatech Modem Control Register can be used to set up each port. To access the QMCR write a 0xBF to the LCR (base + 3) and a 0x10 to t he Options Register (base+7) . This will allow the user read/write access to the QMCR. The QMCR of the entire DSCLP-200/300 is shown in Figure 9 a. 00 - TXEN “Auto” 01 - TXE[...]

4.5 Options Register The Options Register allows software to identify the DSCLP-200/300 as a Quatech Enhanced Serial Adapter. It also allows software to set the UART clock rate multiplier. Figure 10 shows the structure of the Options Register. The powerup default of the Options Register is all bits zero. Clock rate multiplier bit 0 RR0 0 Clock rate[...]

4.5.2 Clock Rate Multiplier A standard serial port operates at a clock speed of 1.8432 MHz. In order to achieve higher data rates, Quatech Enhanced Serial Adapters can operate at two, four, or eight times this standard clock speed. This is controlled by the clock rate multiplier bits in the Options Register. Software can determine the UART clock fr[...]

7 External Connections The DSCLP-200/300 provides four differential communication signals per channel. The two output signals are Transmit Data (TxD) and Auxiliary Output (AUXOUT). The two input signals are Receive Data (RxD) and Auxiliary Input (AUXIN). A ground signal is also provided. The available input signals for AUXIN are Clear To Send (CTS)[...]

7.1 RTS/CTS Handshake Transmission of RTS, combined with reception of CTS, allows for hardware handshaking (data flow control) between the UART and the external device. RTS is transmitted on AUXOUT by not connecting pins 1 and 2 of the jumper blocks J11-12. CTS is received on AUXIN by not connecting pins 1 and 2 of the jumper block J10. If RTS/CTS [...]

7.3 TCLK This is the output clock signal used by the transmitter portion of the UART. It is generally connected to the UART's own receive clock input (RCLK). This is done by not connecting pins 1 and 2 of the jumper block J13. If desired, TCLK can be transmitted to an external source over the AUXOUT line by connecting pins 1 and 2 of the jumpe[...]

7.5 Half-Duplex/Full-Duplex /Auto-Toggle Selection Using jumper blocks J14 thru J16, the transmitters and receivers of each channel can be enabled and disabled by modem control signals. This allows operation in both half-duplex, full-duplex or Auto-Toggle modes. The transmit drivers can be controlled by either the Data Terminal Ready (DTR) or the R[...]
