IO-Link Entwickungsboards

Um IO-Link Herstellern die Entwicklung von neuen Geräten zu vereinfachen, arbeiten wir eng mit verschienenen Halbleiterherstellern bei der Entwicklung von Evaluations- und Demonstrationsbaugruppen zusammen. Dabei werden die Halbleiterprodukte exemplarisch in einer funktionsfähigen IO-Link-Umgebung integriert. Die Entwicklungsboards sind zum Teil auch direkt von den betreffenden Halbleiterherstellern beziehbar.

DC2228A - 8-Port IO-Link Master Referenz Design

IO-Link^®, the new bi-directional, digital, point-to-point communication standard (IEC 61131-9) offers a standardized mapping of advanced sensor and actuator features into the automation tool environment. This technology leverages small but powerful microprocessors being incorporated into sensors and actuators to improve control, parameterization and diagnostics.

TEConcept has developed an 8-Port IO-Link master reference design that demonstrates a robust physical interface built using two LTC2874 IC's. The DC2228A will operate your favorite IO-Link device, controlled by Control Tool software (including IODD Interpreter) via an Ethernet connection.

DC2228A operates either with an external 24V supply or, optionally, a Power over Ethernet (PoE) system. For the PoE case, it can be completely powered via an Ethernet connection to power sourcing equipment such as a PoE injector or PoE switch. We recommend a 90W LTPoE++ solution such as the Allnet ALL048900, which comes with its own power adapter.

DC2227A - LT3669-2 IO-Link Device Demo Board

Demonstration circuit 2227A is a complete IO-Link® device built using the LT®3669-2 to implement an IO-Link v1.1 physical interface (PHY). The IO-Link stack protocol runs on an Atmel ATmega microcontroller which connects to LT3669-2’s logic IO-signals to communicate with an IO-Link master via the CQ1 transceiver.

IO-Link Device Demo

Advanced factory automation solutions (i.e., Industry 4.0) require an increasing number of smart sensors and smart actuators, which are typically controlled using IO-Link® point-to-point serial communication between the sensor/actuator and IO-Link master. As a leading provider of IO-Link device transceiver and master transceiver ICs, Analog Devices, Inc., also provides complete reference design solutions to help our customers improve their time to market. These proven designs cover all the hardware and software requirements needed for compliance with the IO-Link standard.

IO-Link is the first open, field bus agnostic, low-cost, point-to-point serial communication protocol used for communicating with sensors and actuators that has been adopted as an international standard (IEC 61131-9). IO-Link standardizes interoperability of industrial equipment from all over the world. IO-Link can function directly from a PLC or be integrated into standard field buses, quickly making it the de-facto standard for universally communicating with smart devices like the MAXREFDES281.

The MAXREFDES281# is a complete, IO-Link reference design that allows an engineer to connect device or actuator development boards with a Pmod™-compatible peripheral module connector, and interface to an IO-Link Master. The MAXREFDES281# consists of a MAX22516 IO-Link transceiver with integrated data link controller and protection, a microcontroller to run application code, and has a peripheral module connector to connect device or actuator functions, supporting SPI, I2C, or UART interfaces.

MAXREFDES145 8-Port IO-Link Master

The MAXREFDES145 is a fully IO-Link®-compliant, 8-port IO-Link master reference design. This design uses TEConcept's IO-Link master stack and is both an IO-Link master reference design as well as an IO-Link sensor/actuator development and test system. Eight IO-Link ports allow for simultaneous testing of up to eight different sensors (or actuators). The reference design has eight robust female M12 connectors, the most common connector used for IO-Link, and ships with two IO-Link cables to quickly connect to IO-Link compatible sensors and actuators. An AC-to-DC (24VDC/1A) power-supply cube is capable of providing at least 125mA simultaneously to each port and more when fewer ports are unused. A USB 2.0 Type B connector allows for quick connectivity to a Windows® PC.

The easy-to-use TEConcept Control Tool (CT) GUI software with IODD file import capability makes the MAXREFDES145# a must-have for any company or engineer serious about developing IO-Link products.
