1 General Information The Quatech, Inc. DSCLP-200/300(two-port) and SSCLP-200/300 (one-port) provides upto provides two RS-422 or RS-485 asynchronous serial communication interfaces for IBM-compatible personal computer systems using the PCI expansion bus. The DSCLP-200/300 uses Quatech's new Enhanced Serial Adapter design. Legacy serial port data rates are limited to a maximum of 115,200 bits per second. Quatech Enhanced Serial Adapters can achieve data rates as high as 460,800 bits per secon

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 jumper settings that control various hardware features. Jumpers J1-J4, located in a column near the D-9 connectors, control the RS-422 or RS-485 signal line termination. Jumpers J5-J8, located in a column just to the right of J1-J4, control how signals are routed from

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 shown in Figure 2, is a loopback of AUXOUT to AUXIN at the connector, with RTS and CTS looped back on the board. There is an extensive discussion

J2 SPAD X4 J4 J5 X2 Figure 4 --- Enable scratchpad registers 2.4.2 Force High-Speed UART Clock (X2 or X4, J4-J5) These jumpers force an increase of the UART input clock frequency by a factor of two, four, or eight. This feature can allow legacy software to use baud rates above 115,200 bits per second. It is also useful if the serial port device driver does not directly support setting the higher baud rates through the Options Register (see page 10). If one of these jumpers is applied, it overr

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 determined by the BIOS or operating system. Each serial port uses 8 consecutive I/O locations. The two ports reside in a single block of I/O space i

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 are accessed through the scratchpad location of any UART. The DLAB bit of the UART (Line Control Register, bit 7) is used to select between the t

4.4 Quatech Modem Control Register The Quatech Modem Control Register can be used to setup each port. To access QMCR write a 0xBF to the LCR(base + 3) and a 0x10 to the Opt Reg(base+7). This will allow the user read/write access to QMCR. The QMCR of the entire DSCLP-200/300, as shown in Figure 9a. The individual bits are cleared as the interrupting ports are serviced. The QMCR will need to be written to after the setup by writing a 0x00 to (base+B). Bit Description 7 (MSB) 0 (always 0) 6 0 (

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.

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 times or four times this standard clock speed. This is controlled by the clock rate multiplier bits in the Options Register. Software can determine the UART clock frequency by reading the clock rate multiplier bits RR1 and RR0 in the Options Register as shown in Figure 12. RR1 and RR0 can be set by writing to the
