❓ Frequently Asked Questions

🔧 What M.2 slot types are compatible with this card?

This card is compatible with M.2 slots that support Key M or Key B configurations based on PCIe interface. It requires a PCIe 2.0 Gen 1 (x1 link) slot. Please verify your motherboard has an available M.2 slot with PCIe support before purchasing.

💿 Do I need to install drivers?

Yes, drivers are required for proper operation.

📏 Will this card fit in a low-profile case?

Yes! The package includes 2 low-profile brackets, making this card suitable for both standard and low-profile PC cases. The card dimensions are 80 × 22 mm, which is the standard M.2 2280 form factor.

⚡ What is the maximum baud rate supported?

The card supports data transfer rates from 300 bps up to 921.6 kbps (921,600 baud). This covers all standard RS-232 communication speeds and is suitable for most serial device applications.

🔌 Can both serial ports be used simultaneously?

Absolutely! Both DB9 RS-232 ports are independent and can operate simultaneously at full speed. Each port has its own dedicated UART channel with 256-byte FIFO buffers, ensuring reliable concurrent operation.

🌡️ Can this card operate in extreme temperatures?

The card has an operating temperature range of -40°C to +85°C, making it suitable for demanding environments. Storage temperature range is -65°C to +150°C. This makes it ideal for embedded systems and applications in non-climate-controlled environments.

🖥️ Which COM port numbers will be assigned?

COM port numbers are assigned automatically by your operating system during driver installation. The specific port numbers depend on what COM ports are already in use on your system. You can view and configure port assignments in Device Manager (Windows) or through terminal commands (Linux).
