1 General Information

The Quatech, Inc. QSC(LP)-100 provides four RS-232 asynchronous serial

communication interfaces for Low Profile IBM-compatible personal computer

systems using the PCI expansion bus. The QSC(LP)-100 uses Quatech's new

Enhanced Serial Adapter design. Legacy serial port data rates are limited to a

maximum of 115,200 bits per second. Quatech Enhanced Serial Adapters can

achieve data rates as high as 921,600 bits per second.

As a PCI device, the QSC(LP)-100 requires no hardware configuration.

The card is automatically configured by the computer's BIOS or operating system.

The four serial ports share a single interrupt line and are addressed in a

contiguous block of 32 bytes. A special interrupt status register is provided to

help software to manage the shared interrupt.

The QSC(LP)-100's serial ports are implemented using 16550 Universal

Asynchronous Receiver/Transmitters (UARTs). These UARTs contain hardware

buffers (FIFOs) which reduce processing overhead and allow higher data rates to

be achieved.

The QSC(LP)-100 is supported under several popular operating systems

and environments. Contact the sales department for details on current software

offerings. Most device drivers are available for download from the Quatech world

wide web site at http://www.quatech.com.

2 Hardware Configuration

The QSC(LP)-100 is automatically configured at boot time by the

computer's BIOS or operating system. There are no required switches or jumpers

to set for installation.

This chapter lists a number of optional jumper settings that control various

hardware features. Jumpers J2-J5 are grouped together at the end of the board

opposite the HD-44 connector. Any changes from the factory default should be

made before installing the QSC(LP)-100 in the computer.

2.1 Factory Default Configuration

Figure 2 shows the jumper configuration as shipped from the factory, with

two spare jumpers applied in neutral positions. Remove one or both and apply as

shown in following sections to set optional features.

SPAD

Figure 2 --- Factory default jumper configuration

2.2 Enable Scratchpad Register (SPAD, J2)

In the default configuration, an Interrupt Status Register(see section 4.3)

and an Options Register (see section 4.4) replace the scratchpad (base address + 7)

of each UART. If the SPAD jumper is applied as in Figure 3, the UART

scratchpad registers are enabled, and the Interrupt Status Register and the Options

SPAD

2.3 Force High-Speed UART Clock (X2, X4, or X8, J3-J5)

These jumpers force an increase of the UART input clock frequency by a

factor of two, four, or eight. This feature can allow legacy software to use baud

rates above 115,200 bits per second. It is also useful if the serial port device

driver does not directly support setting the higher baud rates through the Options

If one of these jumpers is applied, it overrides any value written to the

Options Register to set the clock multiplier by software. The effective baud rate

will be either two, four, or eight times the value for which the UART itself is

programmed.

The factory default is none of these jumpers applied, which allows for

software control of the clock multiplier via the Options Register. The Options

compatibility with standard serial ports.

3 Hardware Installation

1. Turn off the power of the computer system in which the QSC(LP)-100 is

to be installed.

2. Remove the system cover according to the instructions provided by the

computer manufacturer.

3. Make any desired optional jumper setting changes.

4. Install the QSC(LP)-100 in any empty PCI expansion slot. The board

should be secured by installing the Option Retaining Bracket (ORB)

screw.

5. Replace the system cover according to the instructions provided by the

computer manufacturer.

6. Attach and secure the cable connectors to the desired equipment.

7. Turn on the power of the computer system.

The output of the QSC(LP)-100 is a 44-pin D-connector. A cable is

provided to convert the D-44 into four standard male D-9 connectors with all

control signals provided to each port (RTS, DTR, CTS, DSR, DCD, and RI).

4 Address Map and Special Registers

This chapter explains how the four UARTs and special registers are

addressed, as well as the layout of those registers. This material will be of interest

to programmers writing driver software for the QSC(LP)-100.

4.1 Base Address and Interrupt Level (IRQ)

The base address and IRQ used by the QSC(LP)-100 are determined by the

BIOS or operating system. Each serial port uses 8 consecutive I/O locations. The

four ports reside in a single block of I/O space in eight byte increments, for a total

of 32 contiguous bytes, as shown in Figure 6.

Base Address + 24 to Base Address + 31Serial 4

Base Address + 16 to Base Address + 23Serial 3

Base Address + 8 to Base Address + 15Serial 2

Base Address + 0 to Base Address + 7Serial 1

I/O Address RangePort

Figure 6 --- Port Address Map

All four serial ports share the same IRQ. The QSC(LP)-100 signals a

hardware interrupt when any port requires service. The interrupt signal is

maintained until no port requires service. Interrupts are level-sensitive on the PCI

bus. The base address and IRQ are automatically detected by the device drivers

Quatech supplies for various operating systems. For cases where no device driver

is available, such as for operation under DOS, Quatech supplies the "QTPCI"

DOS software utility for manually determining the resources used. Seesection

6.3.1 for details.
