Designed for engineers, technicians, and hobbyists who need to interface with legacy equipment while keeping up with modern communication standards, this combo card delivers reliable data transfer and flexible connectivity in a compact package.
Key Features
- Dual 3.3V or 5V serial ports - supports RS-232, RS-422, and RS-485 protocols for robust serial communication
- One standard 8-bit parallel port - ideal for legacy printers, industrial controllers, and custom data acquisition systems
- Full PCI bus compatibility - plug into any 32-bit or 64-bit PCI slot with no additional drivers required on Windows or Linux
- Low power consumption - only a few milliamps idle, reducing heat and extending system life
- Compact design - small footprint allows installation in tight spaces such as embedded boards or compact workstations
Technical Specifications
- Serial port speed range: up to 1 Mbaud (with external clock) and standard baud rates from 300 to 115200 bps
- Parallel port data width: 8 bits, 2 stop bits, optional hardware flow control
- Voltage levels: selectable between 3.3V and 5V for each serial channel; parallel port uses standard TTL logic
- PCI bus speed: 33 MHz or 66 MHz support, depending on host system configuration
- Dimensions: 2.75 inches wide by 1.75 inches tall (standard PCI size)
- Operating temperature: -40°C to 85°C for industrial environments
Applications
- Industrial automation - connect PLCs, SCADA systems, and custom control boards via serial or parallel links
- Legacy equipment integration - enable modern PCs to communicate with older printers, barcode scanners, and measurement devices
- Embedded system development - provide a single board interface for prototyping mixed communication protocols
