Introduction The TS-SER4 is a PC/104 expansion card with four serial ports using the PC standard 16C550 type UARTs (with 16-byte FIFOs). All four COM ports support RS-232 levels and two of these COM ports can optionally support RS-422/ RS-485 levels.
(up to 1 Megabit/sec) or non-standard baud rates easily. The PC/104 OSC signal is always used as the clock source except when a crystal oscillator is installed. When a crystal oscillator is installed, it is always used to Figure 1 - Serial Port Header Pin Location derive the baud clock.
Table 4 – COM port I/O locations Control and Status Registers There are four registers on each TS-SER4 board (unrelated to the UARTs). These registers are documented in Table 5 below. The first three registers are “Read Only” while in the fourth register bit 7 is “Read/Write” and bits 0-6 are “Read Only”. For all registers, if a condition is true, a logic “1”...

RTS is asserted during boot. The BIOS and some Operating Systems toggle RTS during boot, which could cause it to “jam” the RS-485 bus. There is also a status bit indicates if the TS-SER4 is populated with the RS-485 option. 2X Baud Clock The Jumper labeled “2x Baud”...
10. Temperature Range The TS-SER4 is available in both standard temperature (0-70 degrees Celsius) and in extended temperature range of –40 to +85 degrees Celsius.
