OXPCIe952, PCI Express to Dual Serial and Parallel Port
Outstanding Performance
Development Support
The OXPCIe952 achieves ultra high performance by
combining the class leading 15Mbps asynchronous
data rates and deep FIFOs of PLX’s Oxford 950
UART, with advanced MSI interrupt handling and
bus master DMA for maximum throughput, minimum
CPU overhead and optimal system performance.
Configurable as two serial ports or one serial and one
parallel port the OXPCIe952 includes a host of
advanced features such as, automated in-band flow
control, readable FIFO levels and RS485 turnaround
delay, that provides further scope to fine tune
performance, while its flexible clock pre-scaler
provides for a wide range of baud rates.
With comprehensive power management and
industrial temperature range as standard, the
OXPCIe952 is perfect for power and temperature
sensitive ExpressCard and MiniCard designs and is
the choice for high performance systems.
To support these advanced features the OXPCIe952 is
backed by a dedicated PLX device driver that is
quality assured, exhaustively tested and WHQL
approved; saving development time and providing
peace of mind.
Design and evaluation of the OXPCIe952 couldn’t be
easier with this comprehensive reference design kit
(RDK). The RDK includes everything you need for
PC installation and evaluation including Hardware,
Oxide Development Tools and software device
drivers. Simply plug the half length PCI Express
evaluation board into any PCI Express slot, install the
software and its ready to go.
Changing the dynamics of device customization,
Oxide development tools enable customization of the
OXPCIe952 in minutes. No more complex, time
consuming, error prone manual editing of
programming files and driver source code; Oxide’s
intuitive graphical user interface provides simple
‘point and click’ feature selection and text box entry
for fast, error free customization with minimal
software expertise as well as instant access to up to
date documentation, software and reference designs.
