IP512: Serial Communication, 485 Isolated Industry Pack Module Description

IP512 Industrial I/O Pack (IP) modules provide an isolated, high-performance serial communication interface for your computer.

Large FIFO buffers on the transmit and receive lines of each serial port enable more efficient data processing. When the buffer is full, an interrupt is sent to the CPU to read the data. To match your budget and performance requirements, you can order 16 or 64-byte (IP512-16/64) buffers.

Update to AcroPack mezzanine modules into your host system, they maintain the same functionality and memory map of Acromag’s existing Industry Pack (IP) modules. Learn More >

IP512: Serial Communication, 485 Isolated Industry Pack Module Features & Benefits

  • Four asynchronous EIA-485 serial ports
  • Isolated serial ports
  • 16 or 64-byte FIFO buffers
  • Software-programmable baud rate (up to 512Kbps)
  • Individually controlled interrupts (unique vectors for each port)
  • Line break generation and detection
  • False start bit detection
  • Industry-standard 16C550 UART including software compatible 16C450 mode
  • 0 to 70°C
  • Isolation protects computer system from ground loops and transient signals
  • FIFO buffers minimize CPU interaction for more efficient data processing
  • Internal diagnostics help detect communication faults
  • Priority shifting scheme prevents continuous interrupts from blocking other ports
