The 8250 has a coarse divider for baud rate.?

12 works to divide 1,843,200 to 9600 baud because

1843200 / 12 / 16 = 9600

The next divider number is 13 and to get 9600 at that value you would need...

X / 13 / 16 = 9600

Solve for X = 1,996,800? ?(so 2Mhz would be pretty decent)

2Mhz gives 9615, = 0.2% error

But, as pointed out, 1.8 is available and 1.8432 crystals will also work (adding the loading caps).

Hi Flavio,

Download the EPROM source file at
<> from the website at
<>.

In the .ASM or .LST file, search for "LD (ACE_BAUD),A". It occurs in two
places. The first one sets the initial baud rate to 9600 (with a 1.8 MHz
resonator or 1.8432 crystal). Change the byte at 01AE to whatever is
correct for your crystal and desired baud rate.

01A5? 21 80FF??? COLD_START??? LD??? HL,RC_TYPE

01AD? 3E 0C? ??? ??? ??? LD??? A,12 <=== this sets 9600 baud!
01AF? 32 8FFF? ? ? ? ? ??? ??? LD??? (ACE_BAUD),A

Or, if you're using the Z80-CPU card serial port, you can change the
Z80-SIO card baud rate using this call:

080B? CD CA0D? ? ? ? ? PORT_SPEED??? CALL??? PRINTI??? ???
080E? 0D0A2830 433D3936 ??? ??? DB??? CR,LF,"(0C=9600) BAUD:",EOS
0816? 30302920 42415544
081E? 3A00
0820? 3A 8FFF? ? ? ? ? ??? ??? LD??? A,(ACE_BAUD)
0823? CD F60D? ? ? ? ? ??? ??? CALL??? PUT_BYTE
0826? CD 490D? ? ? ? ? ??? ??? CALL??? SPACE_GET_BYTE
0829? D8? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ??? ??? RET? C
082A? 32 8FFF? ? ? ? ? ??? ??? LD??? (ACE_BAUD),A
082D? CD F214? ? ? ? ? ??? ??? CALL??? ACE_SET_BAUD
0830? C9? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ??? ??? RET

Hope this helps!
