RS232 TO RS422, RS485 CONVERTER

These surface mount boards are designed around the LTC490 and the LTC485 chips. They connect in-line with the PC com port to provide signal conversions from the RS232C to RS422 differential line signals.

The boards, measuring 1.4" sq. convert the TX and RX signals providing 4-wire (RS422) and 2-wire (RS485) buss implementations.

The input connection is pre-wired to take its power from the +DTR or +RTS connection and to provide feedback to the other input connections to indicate that the device is on-line.

FEATURES

  • Up to 115K Baud data rates!

  • Tested at 115K Baud to 1000 feet with error free operation using level 5, twisted pair, network cable, without line terminators.

  • No delayed turn-a-round time! The RS485 operates up to 115K Baud with no delays.

  • Self-powered from the RS232C PC comm port. Requires the DTR or RTS line to be set high for operation
Simple internal installation or inline cabling. Purchase the units with the optional PC bracket to mount inside the PC. Disconnect the DB 9-pin flying lead comm port connector, (or purchase the IDC flat ribbon cable extension for external to internal connections) route and attach it to the converter ...installation completed. 422bd3.jpg (1920 bytes)
