AP512: Quad Isolated Serial RS422b/485 Communication Module Description
AP512 quad isolated serial RS422b/485 communication modules provide four isolated serial communication ports from a single AP carrier slot for a high-density solution. Software-configuration helps you quickly set baud rates, character-sizes, stop bits, and parity.
For more efficient data processing, each serial port is equipped with 256-character FIFO buffers on the transmit and receive lines.
The data ports generate individually controlled transmit, receive, line status, data set, and flow control interrupts. All interrupts can be read from a single register.
Designed for COTS applications these quad serial RS422b mezzanine modules deliver high-density, high-reliability, and high-performance at a low cost.
The AcroPack® product line updates our popular Industry Pack I/O modules with a PCIe interface format. This tech-refresh design offers a compact size, low-cost I/O, the same functionality and memory map of the existing Industry Pack modules and a rugged form factor.
The AP512 series modules are 70mm long. This is 19.05mm longer than the full length mini PCIe card at 50.95mm. The boards width is the same as mPCIe board of 30mm and they use the same mPCIe standard board hold down standoff and screw keep out areas.
A down facing 100 pin Samtec connector mates with the carrier card. Fifty of these pins are available for field I/O signals. Pin spacing and signal assignments will allow for 100V of port to port isolation.
The AP512 quad isolated serial RS422b/485 communication modules series maintains the same functionality and memory map of the existing Industry Pack modules providing a smooth transition to the AcroPack I/O modules.
AcroPack modules are RoHS compliant and ideal for military, defense, automation, aerospace, scientific, and development labs industries.
