Single-Port PCI Cards
The IC970C-LP provides a single PCI bus RS-232 serial port for
applications requiring a high-quality serial port. Regardless of whether
you are connecting to a modem, an ISDN terminal adapter, an
industrial device, or OEM equipment, this card will provide the
speed and power your application requires.

Single-port PCI cards are also available for RS-232/422/485/530
interfaces. They can easily be configured as RS-232, RS-422, RS-485,
or RS-530, supporting synchronous data rates up to 460.8 kbps.
or RS-530, supporting synchronous data rates up to 460.8 kbps.
The IC971C and IC975C-LP provide a single field-selectable port
that you can configure as RS-422/485/530. In RS-485 mode, these
cards’ autoenable feature allows them to be viewed by the operating
system as a standard COM port. These cards function almost
identically, but the IC975C-LP is a low-profile version that can also
be configured for RS-232. An RoHS-compliant version (ICR975C-LP)
is also available.

is also available.
The IC972C-R2 gives your PC a single serial port that‘s field-
selectable for RS-232/422/485. It also provides opto-isolation. This
is important in installations where the equipment connected to the
PC is either far from the host system or on a different power
transformer circuit. The card’s true optical isolation eliminates ground
loops; these can cause data errors and destroy equipment.

Want to connect a clocked digital line while using your standard
communications software? These cards let you do just that—without
the need for expensive custom software.

Dual-Port PCI Cards
The IC187C-LP features a pair of field-selectable RS-232/ 422/485
serial ports on one end of an included cable. The other end of the
cable has a DB25 female connector that attaches to the card’s DB25
male connector.

male connector.
Configure both ports as RS-232 when highly reliable standard
serial ports are required. Choose RS-422/RS-485 mode for long-
distance device connections up to 4000 feet (1219.2 m) where noise
immunity and high data integrity are essential.

Up to 31 RS-485 devices can be connected to each port to
automate your data collection. You can even mix the ports in any
of the interface combinations to suit your application.

The IC973C provides two RS-232/422/485 DB9 male serial ports.
Plus, it‘s opto-isolated. Like the IC187C-LP, up to 31 RS-485 devices

RS-232/422/485 cards with opto-isolation and low-profile cards
reach speeds of 460.8 kbps and above using a 128-byte FIFO buffer.
Quad-Port PCI Cards
The IC188C-R2 uses its 16854 chip to transfer data at speeds
greater than 460.8 kbps.
The IC974C provides four field-selectable RS-232/422/485
serial ports. It’s identical in function to the dual-port
IC187C-LP except that it connects up to 124 RS-485 devices
to your CPU.
Both 4-port cards include “spider” cables with one connector
to your CPU.

8-Port Combo PCI Card
The IC978C gives you eight field-selectable RS-232/422/485 serial
ports. It functions in the same way as the IC974C, but it connects
up to 248 RS-485 devices to your PC. It reaches sustained speeds
of 460.8 kbps and burst speeds of up to 921.6 kbps.

The IC133C-R2 cards provides two RS-232/422/485 ports. The
IC133C-R2 has a 16550 UART for sustained speeds up to 115.2 kbps
or bursts of data up to 460.8 kbps. The IC187C has a 16850 UART
for speeds beyond 460.8 kbps.

The 8-port PCI cards (IC142C, IC190C-R2) support RS-232. Each
card also includes an octopus cable. A single connector on one end
of this cable attaches to the card‘s single connector. The other end
