ilog’s datacom family evaluation board features the 80186 along with four multiprotocol
serial controllers, and allows customers to evaluate these components in an Intel
environment.

INTRODUCTION

Zilog’s customers need a way to evaluate its serial
communications controllers with a central CPU. This App
Note (Application Note) explains and illustrates how the
datacom family interfaces and communicates with the
80186 on this evaluation board. The board helps the

potential customer to evaluate Zilog’s data communications
controllers in an Intel environment.

The most advanced and complex component of the serial
family is the IUSC. One of the highlights of this App Note
is how the IUSC adapts to the 80186 CPU with a minimum
of difficulty and a maximum of bus and functional flexibility.

GENERAL DESCRIPTION

The evaluation board includes the following hardware.
(Reference two page Schematic diagram at rear of the App
Note - Figures 5A and 5B.)

Intel 80186 Integrated 16-bit Microprocessor

Zilog Z16C32 Integrated Universal Serial Controller
(IUSC™)
