Single-Port PCI Cards The IC970C-LP provides a single PCI bus RS-232 serial port for applications requiring a high-quality serial port. Regardless of whether you are connecting to a modem, an ISDN terminal adapter, an industrial device, or OEM equipment, this card will provide the speed and power your application requires. Single-port PCI cards are also available for RS-232/422/485/530 interfaces.
Technically Speaking With more people using the Internet, new demands have been placed on computer serial ports. Many PC serial ports aren’t equipped to handle the level of buffering required for newer data rates. But advanced UARTs—such as the 16550, 16650, 16750, and 16850—go a long way toward satisfying the requirements. I/O addresses and IRQs 16850 UART 16554 UART Used in the IC142C, two 16554 UARTs contain four 16550 UARTs, each with a 16-byte FIFO buffer.
