USLSA(4)                NetBSD Kernel Interfaces Manual               USLSA(4)


NAME

     uslsa -- USB support for Silicon Labs CP210x series serial adapters


SYNOPSIS

     uslsa* at uhub?
     ucom*   at uslsa?


HARDWARE

     The uslsa driver is known to work with the following adapters:

           Siemens MC60 Data Cable
           Suunto USB Serial Adaptor
           Helicomm IP-Link 1220-DVM
           Nokia CA-42 USB


DESCRIPTION

     The uslsa driver provides support for the Silicon Labs USB-to-RS-232
     Bridge chip.

     The device is accessed through the ucom(4) driver which makes it behave
     like a tty(4).

HISTORY

     The uslsa driver appeared in NetBSD 4.0.


AUTHORS

     The uslsa driver was written by Jonathan A. Kollasch.  Code and style was
     borrowed from existing NetBSD USB-serial drivers.  Due to the unavail-
     ability of documentation, Craig Shelley's reverse-engineered Linux driver
     was used as documentation.


CAVEATS

     Hardware flow control may not work correctly.

     Settings other than 8 data bits, no parity, and 1 stop bit seem to be
     refused by the chip.
