Intelligent, addressable RS422/485 to RS232 converter

March 2002 Data Acquisition & Telemetry

RS232 is the most used serial communication standard for computer systems, equipment, PLC, and industrial devices. Nevertheless, due to its peer-to-peer network topology and unbalanced transmission, the speed is limited and the distance communication capability is constrained.

The NuDAM-6521 is an intelligent addressable RS232/485 to RS232 converter. It is capable of converting the RS422/485 communication signals and hence permitting the user's RS232 device to easily link up to the RS422/485 multidrop network.

Features:

* RS422/485 transceiver.

* RS232 support RTS, CTS hardware handshake signals.

* RS232 and RS422/485 can be different baud rates with intelligent buffer.

* Full-duplex RS422 support.

* Half-duplex RS485 support.

* Up to 128 nodes RS485 devices on the bus.

* Auto direction flow control on RS485.

* Addressable and nonaddressable mode configurable.

* Programmable host watchdog timer for host failure protection.

* High transfer speeds up to 115,2 Kbps.

* High isolation voltage up to 2500 V r.m.s.

* Surge protection on RS422/485 lines.

* Low power consumption.

* Easy set-up and installation.
