SU1-TWIST

CompactPCI® Serial Quad Port Isolated RS-485 Interface

Proven and reliable, RS-485 (EIA/TIA-485) stays a popular fieldbus communication interface, due to simple installation via low cost twisted pair copper cables, up to 1200m length.
The SU1-TWIST is a peripheral slot card for CompactPCI® Serial systems, based on PCI Express®. The board is equipped with four isolated front panel RS-485 ports. High speed RS-485 balanced line transceivers with internal 5kV isolation barrier provide for optimum noise and EMC immunity. The SU1-TWIST is equipped with an octal PCI Express® to UART bridge. The 950-style UARTs are compatible with many asynchronous serial applications and protocols. Four isolated EIA/TIA-485 transceivers are wired to Micro-D front panel connectors, individually configurable for full-duplex operation (4+1 wire cable) or half-duplex (2+1 wire cable), either point-to-point or multipoint applications. Another four UART channels are available via the CompactPCI® Serial backplane connector P4 for versatile rear I/O usage.
