Overview: The HEGD3 uses 2 separate COM81C17 UART's, to provide 2 channels of RS232 interfaced via the HETBASEIO to 'C4x comports. UART programming is performed by hardware from on-board PROM when CONFIG is de-asserted. Simply send characters into the input comport of the HETBASEIO to transmit, and read received characters from the output comport. Characters are sent to, and received from, the HEGD3 as 32-bit words where the bottom byte only is used as data. This suits the range of 'C4x C Compilers that store characters as 32-bit values. Bit 8 is used to identify the channel number. The Comport must be guaranteed to read the data at all times to prevent data loss. The Granddaughter module is 4.0" x 2.5" and is mounted above the TIM-40 with a board to board spacing of 0.2". The maximum height of components above the granddaughter module is 6mm, making the combination of motherboard plus HETBASEIO plus HEGD3 24mm.
