RS232 to RS422/485 Conversion Cable Connection Requires No External Electronics or Power
In many cases where an RS232 to RS422/RS485 connection is required it is possible to perform the signaling conversion without an external adapter and power supply using the interface connections shown below. Why does this work? This arrangement provides connections that effectively satisfy the voltage level requirements of the RS232 and RS422/RS485 receivers for the…

RS232 to RS422/485 Conversion
RS232, RS422 and RS485 are simple asynchronous serial protocols used in a wide range of commercial, industrial, and military applications. All three use the same basic logical protocol, but vary in their physical implementation, i.e., voltage levels and signaling. Since both protocols are commonly used for the same or similar applications, it is often desirable…

High Speed Design
Practical Timing Analysis for 100-MHz Digital Designs By Bob Kirstein, Stratus Engineering MOST TECHNICAL LITERATURE ON HIGH-SPEED DESIGN FOCUSES ON TERMINATION, RINGING, AND CROSSTALK. DESPITE SIGNAL INTEGRITY’S IMPORTANCE, INADEQUATE TIMING MARGINS CAUSE MANY MORE ERRORS IN TODAY’S 100-MHz DIGITAL DESIGNS. As increasing chip complexity, high clock rates, and analog signal-integrity issues complicate digital design, time-to-market…
