It combines the PCIe bridge and UART into a single chip. With Moxa-s PCIe-UART, CP-102E can outperform solutions using a separate PCIe bridge and UART by more than 30%. In particular, throughput is increased by 33%, and CPU loading is decreased by 48%. Another benefit of the single-chip solution is that there are fewer chips on the board, which reduces the risk of chip malfunction and increases the lifespan of the board.
Features of the CP-102E
• PCI Express x1 compliant • 921.6 Kbps maximum baudrate for super fast data transmission • 128-byte FIFO and on-chip H/W, S/W flow control • Low profile form factor fits small-sized PCs • Drivers provided for Windows (2000, XP, 2003, Vista x86/x64), Linux 2.4/2.6, and QNX 6 • 15 KV ESD protection on the board
