Hi Guys,

Was wondering if you could answer a few quick 232-related questions:

1. Which ACIA/UART chips are used in the various coco RS232 paks? Which 
one(s) is/are the most common? Which (if any) is considered "superior"?

2. Are any of the handshaking lines (RTS/CTS etc) used? If so, which?

3. What sort of connector(s) is/are used on the more common 232 carts?

Also, pointers to the various manuals/schematics would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks in advance!
Regards,
