RS485 is a communication standard that should be part of the advanced hardware hacker’s arsenal; it’s not commonly encountered, but powerful exactly when you need it. It’s a physical layer interface ...

Milpitas, Calif.—Galvanic isolation (meaning there is no ohmic signal path connecting the two sides of the interface) is the solution to many line and loop problems, as well as a way to avoid ...

RS485 is the only differential interface allowing for robust data transmission over miles — long distances at reasonably high data rates of up to 100kbps. Preferably bus nodes are connected by ...

Out of all the laptop upgrade options typically available, you wouldn’t expect this specific one. [controlmypad] decided to take a part of his RS485 device programming workflow and put it inside of a ...

The LTC2872 is a multiprotocol 20-Mbit/s RS232 and 500-Kbit/s RS485 transceiver with switchable integrated termination for 3.3-V and 5-V systems. RS485 systems require a termination resistor on the ...

Arduino announced a single-pair Ethernet adapter board for its Uno R4 single-board microcontroller at Electronica this morning. Microchip participated in the development – its LAN8651B1T-E/LMX single ...
