The Model P53 Interface Module complies with EIA Standard RS-530 while all
clock, data and control signals follow the RS-422 standard. The basic configura-
tion of the P53 interface is a DCE device (w/Fem DB-25) and two connector
adapters are provided with the interface: the DCE / DTE adapter which converts
the interface to the DTE form (w/Male DB-25) and the "Legacy" adapter which
converts the interface to the original Model P2 interface.
This interface implements a set of circuits (resources) which can be interconnected
in various ways to satisfy a host of differing applications. These resources are:
a 16-bit FIFO (first-in, first-out) buffer
an inverter
a switchable delay line
The FIFO can be utilized to buffer either the received or the transmitted data (not
both). The Delay Line, in conjunction with a four-position DIP switch, provides an
option for fine tuning the relationship between clock and data timing. Table 4-P
defines the delay lines versus switch settings for the Model P53 Interface.
