     bridges

SYNOPSIS
     To compile this driver into the kernel, place the following line in your
     kernel configuration file:

           device usb
           device ucom

DESCRIPTION
     The ucycom driver provides support for the Cypress CY7C63743 and
     CY7C64013 bridge chips.  These chips were designed to provide a low-cost
     transition path to USB for existing RS232 devices, and have fairly
     limited capabilities.

     The ucycom driver behaves like a tty(4).

HARDWARE
     The ucycom driver currently supports the following devices which
     incorporate Cypress USB to RS232 bridge chips:

     o   DeLorme Earthmate USB GPS receiver

SEE ALSO
     tty(4), usb(4)

HISTORY
