PI7C9X7954 Datasheet, PDF (1/1 Pages) Pericom Semiconductor Corporation – PCI Express® Quad UART I/O Bridge

Product:
PCI Express^® Quad UART I/O Bridge
Part Numbers: PI7C9X7954
Product Description
The PI7C9X7954 is a PCI Express^® Quad UART (Universal
Asynchronous Receiver-Transmitters) I/O Bridge. It is
specifically designed to meet the latest system requirements
of high performance, lead (Pb) -free and reduced package
sizes. The bridge can be used in a wide range of applications
such as Remote Access Servers, Automation, Process
Control, Instrumentation, POS, ATM and Multi-port
RS232/RS422/RS485 Cards. The PI7C9X7954 provides one
x1 PCIe^® (dual simplex 2.5 Gbps) uplink port, and it is fully
compliant with PCI express 1.1 and PCI^® power
management 1.2 specifications. The bridge supports four
high performance UARTs, each of which supports Baud rate
up to 15 Mbps in asynchronous mode. The UARTs support
in-band and out-band auto flow control, arbitrary trigger I/O
mapping and memory mapping. The PI7C9X7954 is fully
software compatible with 16C550-type device drivers and
can be configured to fit the requirements of RS232, RS422
and RS485 applications. The EEPROM interface is provided
for system implementation convenience. Some registers can
be pre-programmed via hardware pin settings to facilitate
system initialization. For programming flexibility, all of the
default configuration registers can be overwritten by
EEPROM data, such as sub-vendor and sub-system ID.
