SAP5S / SAP51
Universal Actuator-Sensor Interface IC
Brief Description
SAP5S/SAP51 is a new generation CMOS integrated circuit for AS-I networks.
The low-level field bus AS-I (Actuator Sensor Interface) was designed for easy, safe and costeffective interconnection of sensors, actuators and switches. It transports both power and data over the same two-wire unshielded cable.
SAP5S/SAP51 is used as a part of a master or slave node and works as an interface to the physical bus.
The device realizes power supply, physical data transfer and communication protocol handling and is fully compliant with AS-Interface Complete Specification V3.0.
