Introduction
PCL-846/847 series cards provide four independent RS-422/485
serial ports on a card. Each port has a 16C550 UART with an
on-chip 16-byte FIFO buffer for reliable, high-speed serial
I/O. The UART buffers data into 16-byte packets before putting
it on the bus. This drastically reduces the CPU load and avoids
data loss when the system is busy and cannot process the interrupt
quickly. The UART is especially useful for high speed serial
I/O under Windows.
