FASTCOM GFSCC / 4 – PCIe
synchronous communication cards RS422 / RS485


The Fastcom: GFSCC/4-PCIe adapter is the one of the most advanced synchronous communications adapters in the industry. The Fastcom: GFSCC/4-PCIe supports data rates up to 20 Mbit/s. The Fastcom: GFSCC/4-PCIe is a four channel adapter, with each one being individually configurable to use HDLC/SDLC, ASYNC (using FC950 UARTS), or Fastcom®: X-Sync protocols. Although similar to the SuperFastcom and ESCC families of adapters, the GFSCC/4-PCIe expands on our previous adapters. The most notable expansion is the longevity of the components of the board. Faced with the inevitability of obsolescence, Commtech decided to put an end to the lifespan problems that plague most computing customers. We designed a serial communications controller with our customers’ needs in mind, and built a card around it. Wholly designed and owned by Commtech, Inc, this FPGA based SCC has most of the features that you are used to seeing in a quality Fastcom product. It also includes a few new features that come directly from customer requests. If the existing FPGA technology is ever discontinued by the chip manufacturer, the design can simply be re-targeted to the next generation of FPGA chip with no impact on compatibility.

Difference Between Fastcom: FSCC and Fastcom: SuperFSCC
The GSuperFSCC card features bus-mastering DMA; therefore, it greatly decreases the amount of interrupts that must be serviced by the host CPU, thus freeing it up for other activities. By utilizing this DMA, the GSuperFSCC is able to stream gapless, full duplex data at the full 50 Mbit/s1. The standard GFSCC card is only able to perform the same task at around 20 Mbit/s. The standard card is capable of operating at rates up to 50 Mbit/s with data bursts. It cannot sustain higher rates without generating gaps in the data (e.g. idle between frames).

RoHS 3 2015/863/EU Compliant
COMM. CONTROLLER: Fastcom F-Core
INTERFACE: RS422 / RS485
CONNECTOR CONFIGURATION: Cable assembly (2 ft.) — Two CHAMP 50 VHDCI connectors to four DB25 plugs
BUS INTERFACE: PCIe x1 Gen 2.0
BAUD RANGE: Using the user independent programmable clock generator in conjunction with the baud rate register, virtually any baud rate from 1 bps to 20 Mbit/s can be attained.
Maximum data rates are estimates. They are greatly affected by a number of different factors. See the data rates section of the manual for more details. This is possible as long as the operating parameters are within reason. If you have any question about whether the card can meet your needs, please contact Technical Support.

Data protocols
HDLC/SDLC
The GFSCC and GSuperFSCC families of cards fully supports the HDLC framing convention. It does not support automatically decoding of the SDLC control fields. If control bytes are present in received frames they will be passed to the user as if they were part of the info field. If control bytes are required to be transmitted they will have to be generated by the user and written as if they were data.
Automatic flag detection and transmission
General frame format: 0x7e,info,CRC,CRC,[CRC,CRC,]0x7e
Frame format with maskable address enabled: 0x7e,address,[address,]info,CRC,CRC,[CRC,CRC,]0x7e
Zero insertion/deletion
One insertion/deletion
Shared flag mode: opening flag and closing flag of back-to-back frames can use the same flag.
Error detection (abort, overrun, underrun, CRC error, too long/short frame)
Can use CRC8, CRC-CCITT, or CRC32
Arbitrary Sync Sequence (Fastcom®: X-Sync)
Any begin/end frame sync sequence of up to 4 bytes
Frame format: SYN1,[SYN2,SYN3,SYN4,]info,[CRC,CRC, CRC,CRC,][TCR1,TCR2,TCR3,TCR4]
Maskable: can select all or parts of the sync sequence to be a sync match
Termination sequence detection up to 4 bytes (maskable)
Shared flag mode: opening flag and closing flag of back-to-back frames can use the same flag.
Error detection
Can use any of the available CRC methods
Transparent Mode
Fully bit transparent (no framing or bit manipulation)
Can synchronize using selectable frame sync signals
Data encoding schemes:
NRZ, NRZI, FM0/FM1, Manchester, Differential Manchester
