MODEM SERIAL PORT

MODEM SERIAL PORT 2 (DEBUG)

6.1MODEM SERIAL PORT

Several configurations can be designed for the serial port on the OEM hardware, but the most common are:

RS232 PC com port

microcontroller UART @ 2.8V - 3V (Universal Asynchronous Receive Transmit)

microcontroller UART@ 5V or other voltages different from 2.8V

Depending from the type of serial port on the OEM hardware a level translator circuit may be needed to make the system work. The only configuration that doesn't need a level translation is the 2.8V UART.

The serial port on the GE863-QUAD/PY is a +2.8V UART with all the 7 RS232 signals. It differs from the PC-RS232 in the signal polarity (RS232 is reversed) and levels. The levels for the GE863- QUAD/PY UART are the CMOS levels:
