    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 rate ...

    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-100. 4.1 Base Address and Interrupt Level (IRQ ) The base address and IRQ used by the QSC-100 are determined ...

  • Quatech QSC-100 - page 12

    4.2 Enabling the Special Registers The QSC-100 contains two unique registers, an Interrupt Status Register and an Options Register. These registers are enabled when the SPAD jumper (J6) is removed (factory default). They replace the UART Scratchpad Register on accesses to register address 7. The Interrupt Status Register and Options Register are ac ...

    A standard RS-232 serial port operates at a clock speed of 1.8432 MHz. In order to achieve higher data rates, Quatech Enhanced Serial Adapters can operate at two times , four times, or even eight times this standard clock speed. This is controlled by the clock rate multiplier bits in the Options Register. Software can determine the UART clock frequ ...
