Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What does the CH384L chip do and what interface does it use?
A: The CH384L is an integrated circuit that adds four serial (UART) ports and one parallel printer port via a PCIe bus interface. It is designed for use in PCIe add-in cards and embedded systems where expanded I/O connectivity is needed on modern PCIe-based platforms.
Q: What package type is the CH384L and is it suitable for hand soldering?
A: The CH384L comes in an LQFP-100 (Low-Profile Quad Flat Package, 100-pin) format. While surface-mount fine-pitch packages generally require reflow soldering or a steady hand with hot-air tools, the LQFP-100 is a well-established, widely-used footprint that experienced assemblers can work with using standard SMD techniques.
Q: How many chips are included in this listing?
A: This listing includes 2 pieces (2PCS) of the CH384L LQFP-100 integrated circuit, both brand new from the factory.
Q: Are these chips compatible with standard PCIe drivers?
A: The CH384L is designed to comply with the PCIe bus standard, and drivers are typically available from the chip manufacturer. Always consult the official CH384L datasheet and your operating system's driver resources to confirm compatibility with your specific hardware and software environment.
