The AT-232/2 can be turned-on via USB, so it doesn't need any external power source. The serial interface card provides RS-232 port (full-duplex) to the computer enabling bi-directional data transport. The bus that connects the AT-232/2 card is ISA bus. The FIFO size/depth of the AT-232/2 is 16 B, implying 16 B of data is required to buffer. The AT-232/2 has a high data rate of 115.2 kbps.
