Making a serial board for Briel Altair Micro

[dwight]

Needs some more for the read and write controls.
Is the address latched from the altairmicro? if not you'll need a latch using the ALE.
You need to add a read port for the various status bits.

Subject: Making a serial board for Briel Altair Micro

After fiddling around with my Briel Altair Micro, I've come to desire more
than just the console serial port.  To that end, I read up on the 16550A
UART, line drivers, line receivers, and schematics for other
implementations of serial ports.  I came up with this:

How close am I to this design making sense and working?
