Three Wire RS232 To RS485 Converter

The schematic diagram below show the circuit diagram of an RS232 to RS485 converter circuit. The  EIA-485 standard, a.k.a TIA/EIA-485 or RS-485, is a physical layer standard defining the electrical properties of electronic drivers and receivers using balanced digital signal which is capable of handling multipoint systems. The ANSI Telecommunications Industry Association/Electronic Industries Alliance (TIA/EIA) is the organization who publish […]

30-Khz Bandwidth High Linearity Opto-Isolated Amplifier

Using optocoupler to directly transfer a linear (analog) voltage would produce  a large unpredictable linearity error, which is also sensitive to temperature changes. By using frequency modulation, the total system’s linearity will  depend only on the linearity of the V/F and F/V converter, which is fortunately cancel each other if we use similar devices with similar non-linearity error characteristic. A […]
