SIMMSerial is a a TINI-pinout SIMM72 module with dual hardware UARTS (16C552) compatible with the discontinued SocketPlus e50 and current TINI firmware. Each RS232 can be wired as DCE or DTE. One RS232 can be used as IrDA.

Works with any TINI system with an available SIMM72 socket. SIMMSerial uses a Xilinx CPLD to present just one CMOS load to the address and data bus (very important on TINI and other high speed micro systems).

SimmSerial uses our standard 2mm serial adapters for the DTE, DCE or IrDA connections.
No special I/O drivers needed - compatible with existing TINI serial2 and serial3 javaxcomm drivers.

Complete examples including IrDA, serial loopback, hardware handshaking and more. See the readme.htm for the main javadoc index to all the examples, and for instructions on running them all. Note that SimmSerial does not need the stretch cycle native method required by SBX2 since the interface speed of the C552 DUART used on SimmSerial is faster than the C550 UART used on SBX2.
