Amiga 8520 serial communications interface
The Amiga 8520 controls, among other things, a single port EIA RS-232C (CCITT
V.28) communications interface with a single character buffer. Such an
interface is built-in to all Amiga machines.
Input and output for each line may set to one of following baud
rates; 50, 75, 110, 134.5, 150, 300, 600, 1200, 1800, 2400, 4800, 9600,
19200, 38400, 57600 or 76800.
- ser0: silo overflow.
- The single-character input “silo” has overflowed and
incoming data has been lost.
- ser0: %d ring buffer overflows.
- The software based input ring buffer has overflowed %d times and incoming
data has been lost.
The Amiga ser
device first appeared in
NetBSD 1.0
Data loss is possible on busy systems with baud rates greater than 300.
