The DS-MPE-SER4M offers four RS-232/422/485 serial ports and operates over an extended operating temperature range of -40 to 85oC.
Data rates on every port are up to 1Mb/s in RS-232 mode, and 10Mb/s in RS-422 and RS-485 modes.
The board's serial protocols are selected via software controlled GPIO lines built into the UART or on board jumpers.
I/O signals are provided on two miniature connectors with two ports per connector.
