Intellio
C218Turbo Series
The Intellio C218Turbo series is specifically designed for
small while performance demanding application. With the
state-of-the-art ASIC (Application Specific Integrated
Circuit), on-board RISC processor (TI TMS320) and large
I/O buffer (512KB), C218Turbo handles serial I/O at world
class performance: sustained 230K bps throughput on all
eight ports simultaneously and only occupy 5 % of host
processor time (*), freeing more host resource for critical
tasks. This feature is specifically applicable to fast
response demanding application on industrial control and
high speed telecommunication applications.
(*) The benchmark is made by using Equinox ComTach program
under Windows NT 4.0, Pentium-233 platform.
