Check some literature from Intel (they make the >chip)... Actually, the 8250 (and its very similar successor, the 16450 used in ATs) is made by National Semiconductor. Intel makes a serial chip called the 8251 which is quite different. Documentation on the 8250 and 16450 can be found in IBM's various PC and AT Technical Reference manuals, as well as other books about PC hardware. -- Mark Alexander (amdahl!drivax!alexande)
