5.7.6.2 Serial Port Redirection
It is expected that many PMCs will include a serial debug port in addition to their other I/O. The
CPCI-6115-MCPTM allows the COM1 and COM2 connectors to be redirected by means of 16:8
multiplexers to the PMC I/O modules so the PMC I/O module faceplate area does not have to
be used to provide a connector to access the debug port. A jumper on the CPCI-6115-MCPTM
switches the COM1 connector between either the serial port originating on CPCI-6200 SBC or
the serial port originating on PMC I/O module 1 (if any). Likewise for COM2 and PMC I/O
module 2.
The redirected serial channels are routed to pins reserved on the host I/O connector. A serial
port (if any) originating on the PMC located on the CPCI-6200 SBC is connected to the PMC I/O
module through the standard 64 bits of PMC user I/O. The PMC I/O module must then loop the
serial port back out on its host I/O connector.
This approach allows the serial debug port to be assigned to any of the 64 PMC user I/O lines.
The mating PMC I/O module maps those lines onto the CPCI-6115-MCPTM serial channels. It is
expected that future transition modules will reserve the same pins on the host I/O connector
for this serial port function.
5.7.6.3 Asynchronous Serial Port Diagrams
The two asynchronous port configuration diagrams are shown on the following pages. The
asynchronous serial ports are configured through jumper settings. Serial ports 1 and 2 are
routed through connector J5.
The next two figures illustrate the CPCI-6200 baseboard and CPCI-6115-MCPTM with the
interconnections and jumper settings for DCE/DTE configuration on each serial port.
5.7.6.4 Port Configuration Diagrams
The following interface configuration diagrams describe the interface between the CPCI-6200
SBC and the CPCI-6115-MCPTM.
