The Role of Termination Resistors in PROFIBUS-DP Connectors

The Role of Termination Resistors in PROFIBUS-DP Connectors

*Follow to receive 2798 PLC wireless communication cases* The PROFIBUS bus is a purple shielded twisted pair cable, with the two cores being red and green. When connecting to the bus connector, the wiring must be done according to color, generally A1 and A2 are green, while B1 and B2 are red. 2. Devices on … Read more

Choosing RS-485 Bias and Termination Resistors

Choosing RS-485 Bias and Termination Resistors

RS-485 automatic transceiver circuits are favored because they use one less I/O pin compared to circuits with control pins, making them more popular in resource-constrained master control scenarios. How does the automatic transceiver achieve automatic sending and receiving, and what factors should be considered when selecting bias and termination resistors? RS-485 Automatic Transceiver Principle The … Read more
