Description
Synchronous serial connectivity is
an appropriate choice when rigorous security and intensive data
integrity protocols are required for high-speed serial
communication. It is the communication method of choice for a wide
variety of military and commercial systems such as satellite
monitoring, radar control, GPS systems, flight recorder data
transfers, and HF (High Frequency) e-mail systems to name a few.
Quatech's single port RS-232
synchronous serial PCMCIA card supports asynchronous data formats as
well as byte-oriented synchronous protocols such as BiSync, and
bit-oriented synchronous protocols such as HDLC and SDLC. The card's
robust design provides 1024-byte transmit and receive FIFOs, and a
SCC with advanced internal functions including on-chip baud rate
generators and digital phase-lock loop (DPLL) for recovering data
clocking from received data streams. The cards are available with a
convenient detachable cable, or with a ruggedized attached cable for
extreme environments.
Quatech's frame-level HDLC and
Bisync driver, SyncDrive, is included for Windows 95/98/Me and OS/2.
For Windows 2000/XP, SyncDrive Plus, a bit-synchronous SDLC/HDLC
driver is also included. Both SyncDrive packages are not application
programs themselves, but provide C callable routines and C data
structures designed to aid users in the development of their own
application software. |
