I. GENERAL INFORMATION The Quatech, Inc. DS-102 provides two RS-232 asynchronous serial communication interfaces for IBM-compatible personal computer systems using the ISA (Industry Standard Architecture) expansion bus. The DS-102's two serial ports are implemented using 16450 Universal Asynchronous Receiver/Transmitters (UARTs). For higher performance, 16550 UARTs can be installed in place of the 16450 UARTs. The 16550 contains a hardware buffer that reduces processing overhead. Software must

III. ENABLING AND ADDRESSING PORTS Setting the address Each serial port on the DS-102 uses 8 consecutive I/O locations in the range of 0000 hex to 07FF hex. The base address of each port is set using a DIP switch pack on the DS-102. When setting the address selection switches, a switch in the "ON" position specifies that the corresponding address line must be a logic 0 for the port to be selected. Similarly, a switch in the "OFF" position forces the corresponding address line to be a logic 1

IV. SETTING INTERRUPT LEVELS (IRQS) The DS-102 interrupt circuitry allows each port to use any interrupt level in the range IRQ2 through IRQ7. The interrupt levels are selected using jumper packs J5 for Serial 1 and J6 for Serial 2. In Figure 7, the factory default settings for Serial 1 and Serial 2 are shown. Serial 1 J5 Default is IRQ 4 Serial 2 J6 Default is IRQ 3 Figure 7 --- Interrupt level (IRQ) selection 8 Quatech DS-102 User's Manual IRQ2 IRQ2 IRQ3 IRQ3 IRQ4 IRQ4 IRQ5 IRQ5 IRQ6 IRQ6 I

Interrupt Sharing An interrupt sharing circuit allows a port on the DS-102 to share an interrupt with the other port on the board or with another Quatech adapter supporting sharable interrupts. When interrupt sharing is used, the software must query each port attached to a given IRQ level when an interrupt for that IRQ is received by the computer. Use of this feature is beyond the capabilities of most commercial applications. If the software to be used with the DS-102 is not specially written

V. EXTERNAL CONNECTIONS RS-232-C devices are classified by their function as either Data Terminal Equipment (DTE) or Data Communication Equipment (DCE). Generally, data terminal equipment is defined as the communication source and data communication equipment is defined as the device that provides a communication channel between two DTE-type devices. Terminal Modem RS-232-C DTE DCE Telephone line Terminal Modem RS-232-C DTE DCE Figure 10 --- Use of DTEs and DCEs in a communications link DTE- and

To simplify connections to other devices, each port on the DS-102 is equipped with a jumper block that allows the port to be configured as either a DTE- or DCE-type device. This allows the DS-102 to communicate with either DTE- or DCE-type devices without using a null modem cable. J7 is used for Serial 1 and J8 is used for Serial 2. The DTE/DCE selection jumper blocks are illustrated in Figure 12. pin 3 TxD 1 7 J7 -- Serial 1 2 8 pin 2 RxD J8 -- Serial 2 These jumper blocks are used to 3 9

VI. SERIAL PORT FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION This section contains information intended for advanced users planning to do custom programming with the DS-102. The information presented here is a technical description of the interface to the 16450 or 16550 UART. The 16450 UART is an improved functional equivalent of the 8250 UART, performing serial-to-parallel conversion on received data and parallel-to-serial conversion on output data. Designed to be compatible with the 16450, the 16550 UART enters c
