The TS7500 and 7550 does NOT I repeat NOT have standard Linux serial device driver support. The User Space servers that Technologic supply limit the throughput and latency you achieve. Since your baud rate is the same on all channels and the through put is relatively low you might be able to get away with it. I would suggest you set up a demo with one 7550 and see if it works without delays. I had to modify the servers and finally write my own drivers to get 50 ms latency and line set up flexibility. If you go to a device driver, you might be able to multiplex the serial streams in hardware and limit the number of 7550's. I can help you with this.

I need to maintain communications with 80 devices overRS-232 serial (115k). Each device streams an approximately 120 byte packet every 100ms. also the host, can send packets, and expect a response at any time. The packets are hex encoded with out of band start and stop characters. I am contemplating using 10 ts-7550s (with appropriate level shifters) to control the devices, and forward the data over ethernet. The intent would be to crack the serial packets (which include 2 crc32 checks) down to their 60byte binary size, buffer 10 or so serial packets per channel, (600bytes per ethernet packet) and send them on up to a host for logging and display. My data rate calculations show very modest ethernet usage (8 x 600 bytes/s). On the surface the ts-7550 looks like a nice fit for this. Anyone have any experience with the XUARTs , or better suggestions? Probably no more than 3 <80 channel systems> will be built. Best Regards Mike __._,_.___
