The OX16PCI952 evaluation board provides an environment in which
the various modes and features of the OX16PCI952 device can be
demonstrated.
This guide documents the board and explains how to use it to develop
systems using the Oxford Semiconductor OX16PCI952 device. It is
relevant to developers working on implementations using those
products and should be read before using it, to avoid the possibility of
usage errors.
This manual assumes that you understand the capabilities of Oxford
Semiconductor bridge and UART products, and are familiar with PCI
and PC card bus interfaces.

Evaluation Board
Overview
The OX16PCI952 evaluation board kit contains the OX16PCI952
evaluation board with embedded OX16PCI952 chip.
Board documentation, standard configuration files and utility tools such
as OxProm are available from the Oxford Semiconductor website.
Features The evaluation board is an adaptable tool with configurable features
including the following:
Configurable device modes
Parallel port function via a standard 25-way D-type header
Serial EEPROM socket for maximum device configurability
Internal crystal oscillator, or any frequency via a TTL oscillator
socket (switchable)
Configuration The evaluation board is a valuable tool for assessing the behavior of the
OX16PCI952 device and can be configured to support systems using the
following selectable capabilities:
2-port serial (1 × RS232, 1 × RS422)/1-port parallel card
2-port serial (1 × RS232, 1 × RS422)
Chapter 3 Configuring the Evaluation Board explains the board settings
required to operate the OX16PCI952 in these modes.
