Description

XPort1020 is an intelligent communications controller targeting high performance yet low cost applications. XPort1020 combines a wide array of supported serial protocols, a broad range of serial interface standards, and a flexible I/O routing structure, to pack maximum flexibility into an industry standard cPCI form factor.

Powered by three MPC8270’s (PowerQUICC II™), XPort1020 implements twelve serial communication ports, each providing a EIA-530-A compliant signal set. Supporting HDLC/SDLC, UART, Transparent and BISYNC modes, with NRZ, NRZI, FM0, FM1, Manchester and Differential Manchester encoding. Coupled with software configurable support for RS-232, RS-422, RS-423, RS-485 and MIL-STD-188-114, XPort1020 provides a wide range of serial options.

As a system designer, XPort1020 will help drive both cost and power consumption out your system. Because the PCI bridge is integrated on chip and MPC8270’s are linked via the 60x bus, XPort1020 draws less power, and costs less than conventional designs based on other processors that require a PCI bridge.
