PCE335

Sunhillo’s PCE335 Intelligent Synchronous Serial Communications Adapter provides four high-performance synchronous serial ports for connectivity. The adapter is ideally suited for use within radar servers, frame relay access devices, high‑speed modems, and other high‑speed communications devices. The PCE335 is part of Sunhillo’s industry‑leading Protocol Software and connectivity solutions.

Protocol Solution Software Support

With a well-defined Application Programming Interface (API), Sunhillo’s integrated protocol suite reduces time‑to‑market by eliminating unnecessary development time at the hardware/protocol level. The protocols for Sunhillo’s products enable development engineers to proceed directly to integration and application development efforts. A comprehensive suite of communications protocols provides complete connectivity solutions for Radar, TADIL-B, HDLC, X.25, and Frame-Relay protocols. Operating system support includes Linux®, Windows®, and Solaris™.

Hardware Features

The PCE335 is designed as a fully programmable communications subsystem capable of sustaining high data rates for a variety of protocols used in synchronous data communications. The PCE335 architecture capitalizes on the intelligence of the Freescale™ MPC8270 Quad Integrated Communications Controller (PowerQUICC® II), enabling it to act as a specialized communications controller.

The PCE335 adapter enhances overall system performance by using its on-board intelligence and 128 MB of SDRAM array to handle much of the low-level communications that typically burden the host system and relegates most of the serial I/O communication related processing to the PCE335. In addition, the SDRAM eliminates start-up delays associated with application download wait times by enabling the code to be executed directly on-board.
