OX16PCI958 Overview
The OX16PCI958 contains eight UARTs (Universal Asynchronous Receiver-Transmitters) and a host interface suitable for direct connection to a PCI bus. Once installed and configured by the host OS, it provides an eight-byte programming interface to each UART. The UARTs are fully software-patible with 16C550 devices.
OX16PCI958 Key Features
