PCI Communication cards - first generation
During the years 2006 - 2007, the TEDIA PCI communication cards had been revised. The first generation cards had been intended only for conventional 5V PCI bus.
The second generation cards are intended for conventional 5V PCI bus (i.e. classic 32-bit bus) or 3.3V bus (usually 64-bit PCI bus) and PCI-X (high-performance variant of 64-bit PCI designed for servers). The newly revised cards are labelled as "U" (universal) and they can be used in all PCI slots (3.3V and/or 5V).
Below you can find the overview of the discontinued cards with suggestions for the second generation replacement types. You may also use new PCI Express communication cards.

The PCI-1222/1224 PCI cards are based on the Oxford Semiconductor controller OX16PCI954 that provides PCI bus interface, 4 efficient UARTs (16C950 standard) and parallel interface in one circuit.
The first two ports at the PCI-1224 (or both ports at the PCI-1222 card) lead to the D-Sub 9 connectors, located on the card mounting bracket, the other two ports are accessible via the expansion card, fitted with the interface circuits located in the next slot. The expansion card is included. The ports provide full modem control signals and standard D-Sub 9 pin layout.
Useful feature are LED indicators on the card mounting bracket (a pair for every port), providing a comfortable check of the line activity.
Package contents:
PCI-1222 package contains only PCI card without any expansion card.
PCI-1224 package contains PCI card and PCI-1029 expansion card.

The expansion card is included. The RS-232 ports provide full modem control signals and standard D-Sub 9 pin layout.
Like any other TEDIA products, the RS-422/485 output circuits provide surge protection (TVS diodes) and termination impedances with fail-safe bias resistors, as advised by many standards (e.g. Profibus).
Unlike other TEDIA communicaton cards, the RTS/CTS signals are also provided, therefore PCI-1284 card is pin-to-pin compatible with PCI-1602B (Advantech) or CP-132IS (Moxa). In addition, PCI-1284 offers the LED indicators at the card mounting bracket.
All ports provide the optical isolation.
