PCI-1610B 4-port RS-232 PCI Comm Card, w/ Surge Protection (PCI-1610B)

PCI-1610 is a 4-port RS-232 PCI communication card that is compatible with the PCI 2.1 bus specification. (PCI-1610CU is also compliant with 2.2) and offer transmission speeds up to 921.6 kbps. PCI-1610 also comes with high-performance 16PCI954 UART with a 128-byte FIFO to reduce CPU load. These components make your system more stable and reliable. Thus, the PCI-1610 is especially suitable for multitasking environments.

PCI-1610CU has a universal PCI connector that is compatible with both the latest 3.3 V signaling systems and the traditional 5V signaling system. This gives high compatibility and allows usage in diverse systems. To further increase reliability, the PCI-1610B and PCI-1610CU offers EFT surge protection technology, protecting your system from abrupt high voltages up to 2,500 VDC. PCI-1610CU also provides 2,500 VDC isolation to protect your PC and equipment against damages from ground loops in harsh environments.

Advantech also provides a convenient utility program, ICOM Tools, to help test the PCI card performance by analyzing the port status. With menu commands and toolbar buttons, ICOM Tools acts as a PC-based data scope that lets you set a trigger condition, capture the communications data and monitor the signal status. ICOM Tools is applicable to all series of Advantech ICOM cards.
