The XPort1013 is an intelligent communications controller targeting high-performance serial applications. The XPort1013 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 PCI card.Powered by the Freescale MPC8270 (PowerQUICC™ II) processor, the XPort1013 implements four serial communication ports providing an 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-188-114A, the XPort1013 provides maximum flexibility for your application.For a system designer, the XPort1013 will help drive both cost and power consumption down. Since the PCI bridge is integrated on-chip, the XPort1013 draws up to 40% less power, and costs up to 30% less than conventional designs based on other processors.
