2.8 Serial Interfaces
The AT8060 uses serial interfaces to manage the CPU, the only way to get visual information from the board
when used without a RTM806X. Serial ports are provided on the faceplate and on the RTM faceplate for
asynchronous serial communications. They are 16C550 high-speed UART compatible and support 16-byte
FIFO buffers for transfer rates from 9,6Kbps to 115,2Kbps.
