How to determineif a Modbus TCPconnection is established? Answer: To performModbus TCPcommunication, a connection must be established. S7-200 SMART CPUas aModbus TCPclient: You can determine the connection status using the Modbus TCP Client instruction’s symbol table parameter mConnected, as shown in Figure 1. If mConnected=1, it indicates that the connection has been established, while mConnected=0 … Read more
Introduction In low-power applications, it is sometimes necessary to put the MCU into STOP mode to save power. In some chip architectures, to achieve this, the serial port pins are often configured as general I/O pins with external interrupt mode before entering low-power mode. While this can achieve the desired effect, it inevitably leads to … Read more
In the complex world of electronic circuits, various circuit module devices need to communicate with each other to work together. The I2C interface acts as a communication bridge between these circuit module devices, and today we will take a deep dive into it. 1. Starting with a Physical Example The image below shows an I2C … Read more
