I need a quick and easy PC interface to about 8 RS232 lines.  Performance
requirements are low so I was thinking of just wrapping a kuldge card
with several UARTs.  The last one I worked with was the 8250, 10 years ago
or so.  I find it very convenient, but I don't want to give up the real
estate and power drain to put 8 of those on a card.

If someone knows of a easy to use UART/USART, ideally CMOS and ideally
multi-channel per package, I'd appreciate it if you could email me the
part #; I'm sure that in the last 8 years there've been some good chips

	thanks
