ESCRIPTION
The OXmPCI952 is a single chip solution for PCI and mini-
PCI based serial and parallel expansion add-in cards. It is
a dual function PCI device, where function 0 offers two
ultra-high performance OX16C950 UARTs, and function 1
is configurable either as an 8-bit Local Bus or a bi-
directional parallel port.
Each UART channel in the OXmPCI952 is the fastest
available PC-compatible UART, offering data rates up to
15Mbps and 128-byte deep transmitter and receiver FIFOs.
The deep FIFOs reduce CPU overhead and allow
utilisation of higher data rates. Each UART channel is
software compatible with the widely used industry-standard
16C550 devices (and compatibles), as well as the
OX16C95x family of high performance UARTs. In addition
to increased performance and FIFO size, the UARTs also
provide the full set of OX16C95x enhanced features
including automated in-band flow control, readable FIFO
levels etc.
To enhance device driver efficiency and reduce interrupt
latency, internal UARTs have multi-port features such as
shadowed FIFO fill levels, a global interrupt source register
and Good-Data Status, readable in four adjacent DWORD
registers visible to logical functions in I/O space and
memory space.
Expansion of serial cards beyond two channels is possible
using the 8-bit pass-through Local Bus function. The
addressable space can be increased up to 256 bytes, and
divided into four chip-select regions. This flexible
expansion scheme caters for cards with up to 18 serial
ports using external 16C950, 16C952, 16C954 or
compatible devices, or composite applications such as
combined serial and parallel port expansion cards.
The parallel port is an IEEE 1284 compliant SPP/EPP/
ECP parallel port that fully supports the existing Centronics
interface. The parallel port can be enabled in place of the
Local Bus. An
external bus transceiver is required for 5V
parallel port operation.
The configuration register values are programmed using an
external Microwire
TM
compatible serial EEPROM. This
EEPROM can also be used to provide
function access,
to
pre-configure each UART into enhanced modes or pre-
configure devices on the local bus/parallel port, prior to any
PCI configuration accesses and before control is handed to
(generic) device drivers.
