  37. .Cd "device scc"
  38. .Cd "device uart"
  39. .\"
  40. .Sh DESCRIPTION
  41. The
  42. .Nm
  43. device driver provides support for various classes of SCCs.
  44. It is an umbrella driver that delegates control of each independent
  45. communication channel to subordinate drivers.
  46. These subordinate drivers, like
  47. .Xr uart 4 ,
  48. take care of the details of the communication itself.
  49. .\"
  50. .Sh HARDWARE
  51. The
  52. .Nm
  53. driver supports the following classes of SCCs:
  54. .Pp
  55. .Bl -bullet -compact
  56. .It
  57. SAB82532: Siemens SAB 82532 based serial communications controllers.
  58. .It
  59. Z8530: Zilog 8530 based serial communications controllers.
