You mean tcsendbreak?

Maybe, although implementations don't seem to provide much granualarity
for the length of the break (OpenBSD uses a hard-coded 0.25 to 0.5 sec,
Linux uses 0.25 - 0.5 sec blocks, and it's not clear from the man page
what Solaris does).

Does the duration of the break matter that much?  The code already
truncates it to 0.5 to 3 sec.

usually comes from bad judgement.
