  • Efficiently Triggering, Debugging and Decoding Low-Speed Serial Buses

    Efficiently Triggering, Debugging and Decoding Low-Speed Serial Buses

    Efficiently Triggering, Debugging and Decoding Low-Speed Serial Buses Hello, my name is Jerry Mark, I am a Product Marketing Engineer at Tektronix. The following presentation discusses aspects of embedded design techniques for “Efficiently Triggering, Debugging, and Decoding Low-Speed Serial Buses”. 1 Agenda Introduction – Parallel Interconnects – Transition from Parallel to Serial Buses – High-Speed versus Low-Speed Serial Data Buses Low-Speed Serial Data Buses – Challenges – Technology Reviews – Measurement Solutions Summary 2 In this presentation we will begin by taking a glance at the transition from parallel-to-serial data and the challenges this presents to engineers. Then we will briefly review some of the most widely used low-speed serial buses in industry today and some of their key characteristics. We will turn our attention to the key measurements on these buses. Subsequently, we will present by example how the low-speed serial solution from Tektronix addresses these challenges. 2 Parallel Interconnects Traditional way to connect digital devices used parallel buses Advantages – Simple point-to-point connections – All signals are transmitted in parallel, simultaneously – Easy to capture state of bus (if you have enough channels!) – Decoding the bus is relatively easy Disadvantages – Occupies a lot of circuit board space – All high-speed connections must be the same length – Many connections limit reliability – Connectors may be very large 3 Parallel buses present all of the bits in parallel, as shown in the logic analyzer display. A parallel connection between two ICs can be as simple as point-to-point circuit board traces for each of the data lines. If you can physically probe these lines, it is easy to display the bus state on a logic analyzer or mixed signal oscilloscope.

    Fieldbus Communication: Industry Requirements and Future Projection

    MÄLARDALEN UNIVERSITY SCHOOL OF INNOVATION, DESIGN AND ENGINEERING VÄSTERÅS, SWEDEN Thesis for the Degree of Bachelor of Science in Engineering - Computer Network Engineering | 15.0 hp | DVA333 FIELDBUS COMMUNICATION: INDUSTRY REQUIREMENTS AND FUTURE PROJECTION Erik Viking Niklasson [email protected] Examiner: Mats Björkman Mälardalen University, Västerås, Sweden Supervisor: Elisabeth Uhlemann Mälardalen University, Västerås, Sweden 2019-09-04 Erik Viking Niklasson Fieldbus Communication: Industry Requirements and Future Projection Abstract Fieldbuses are defined as a family of communication media specified for industrial applications. They usually interconnect embedded systems. Embedded systems exist everywhere in the modern world, they are included in simple personal technology as well as the most advanced spaceships. They aid in producing a specific task, often with the purpose to generate a greater system functionality. These kinds of implementations put high demands on the communication media. For a medium to be applicable for use in embedded systems, it has to reach certain requirements. Systems in industry practice react on real-time events or depend on consistent timing. All kinds are time sensitive in their way. Failing to complete a task could lead to irritation in slow monitoring tasks, or catastrophic events in failing nuclear reactors. Fieldbuses are optimized for this usage. This thesis aims to research fieldbus theory and connect it to industry practice. Through interviews, requirements put on industry are explored and utilization of specific types of fieldbuses assessed. Based on the interviews, guidelines are put forward into what fieldbus techniques are relevant to study in preparation for future work in the field. A discussion is held, analysing trends in, and synergy between, state of the art and the state of practice.

  • LIN (LOCAL INTERCONNECT NETWORK) SOLUTIONS by Microcontroller Division Applications

    LIN (LOCAL INTERCONNECT NETWORK) SOLUTIONS by Microcontroller Division Applications

    AN1278 APPLICATION NOTE LIN (LOCAL INTERCONNECT NETWORK) SOLUTIONS by Microcontroller Division Applications INTRODUCTION Many mechanical components in the automotive sector have been replaced or are now being replaced by intelligent mechatronical systems. A lot of wires are needed to connect these components. To reduce the amount of wires and to handle communications between these systems, many car manufacturers have created different bus systems that are incompatible with each other. In order to have a standard sub-bus, car manufacturers in Europe have formed a consortium to define a new communications standard for the automotive sector. The new bus, called LIN bus, was invented to be used in simple switching applications like car seats, door locks, sun roofs, rain sensors, mirrors and so on. The LIN bus is a sub-bus system based on a serial communications protocol. The bus is a single master / multiple slave bus that uses a single wire to transmit data. To reduce costs, components can be driven without crystal or ceramic resonators. Time syn- chronization permits the correct transmission and reception of data. The system is based on a UART / SCI hardware interface that is common to most microcontrollers. The bus detects defective nodes in the network. Data checksum and parity check guarantee safety and error detection. As a long-standing partner to the automotive industry, STMicroelectronics offers a complete range of LIN silicon products: slave and master LIN microcontrollers covering the protocol handler part and LIN transceivers for the physical line interface. For a quick start with LIN, STMicroelectronics supports you with LIN software enabling you to rapidly set up your first LIN communication and focus on your specific application requirements.
