The baseboard provides four serial transceivers.
Figure A.20 shows the pin numbering for the 9-pin D-type male connector used on the baseboard and Table A.23 lists the signal assignment for the connectors.
The pinout shown in Figure A.20 is configured as a Data Communications Equipment (DCE) device.
Table A.23. Serial plug signal assignment
Pin | UART0 J40A (top) | UART1 J40B (bottom) | UART2 J39A (top) | UART3 J39B (bottom) |
---|---|---|---|---|
1 | SER0_DCD | NC | NC | NC |
2 | SER0_RX | SER1_RX | SER2_RX | SER3_RX |
3 | SER0_TX | SER1_TX | SER2_TX | SER3_TX |
4 | SER0_DTR | SER1_DTR[a] | SER2_DTRa | SER3_DTRa |
5 | SER0_GND | SER1_GND | SER2_GND | SER3_GND |
6 | SER0_DSR | SER1_DSRa | SER2_DSRa | SER3_DSRa |
7 | SER0_RTS | SER1_RTS | SER2_RTS | SER3_RTS |
