Description
Quatech's single port RS-232 synchronous serial PCI board supports asynchronous
data formats as well as byte-oriented synchronous protocols such as BiSync,
and bit-oriented synchronous protocols such as HDLC and SDLC. The card's
robust design provides 1024-byte transmit and receive FIFOs, and a SCC
with advanced internal functions including on-chip baud rate generators
and digital phase-lock loop (DPLL) for recovering data clocking from received
data streams.

SyncDrive (Plus) is a frame-level synchronous communication driver implemented by a DLL and a device driver. Applications interface to SyncDrive (Plus) through C callable routines and C data structures. The routines provide services for channel configuration, transmitting a buffer, receiving a buffer, setting and monitoring I/O status. Once a handle is opened to the device driver, the application simply reads and writes frames as it would files, without worrying about buffer management, interrupts, or register handling. SyncDrive (Plus) handles start and end flags, synchronization characters, and CRC information on transmit and receive. The C data structures used are for configuration, transmitting and receiving buffers. |
