Description

Low Profile PCI was
designed to provide greater flexibility for embedded systems,
thin-clients, and desktop and server environments. The boards are
mechanically similar to standard PCI boards, but use a shorter board
and a different mounting bracket. They are designed to fit into
systems as low as 3.350" without using riser cards. The boards are
built on 32-bit addressing, and can be used in standard PCI backplanes
or with specialized Low Profile PCI brackets.
Quatech's SSCLP-100
provides one RS-232 serial port to a host computer via a single Low
Profile PCI slot. The boards are built using the smallest (MD1) Low
Profile board specification, which allows them to be used in even the
smallest size systems.
The boards also use a
universal PCI connector compatible with both the 3.3V connector key
required by the specification and the 5V connection used by older PC
and thin client systems. This means that they can be used with current
equipment, and will not need to be replaced as systems are upgraded.
All PCI registers on the
SSCLP-100 are properly implemented. Thus, users can be assured that
Quatech boards will be good citizens on the PCI bus, and will not
cause conflicts with other properly configured devices.
The boards are
implemented with 16550 UARTs containing 16-byte FIFOs. They have a
clock multiplying feature allowing them to achieve data rates as high
as 460.8 kbps. The high clock speeds and deep FIFOs will greatly
reduce CPU overhead, making these boards an ideal choice for heavy
multi-tasking environments.
The SSCLP-100 uses a
single on-board D9 serial port. Windows 95/98/Me/NT/2000 and OS/2 are
supported.
