SAP5 EVALUATION BOARD V2.0

The SAP5 EVALUATION BOARD V2.0 is an evaluation board for SAP5 universal actuator sensor interface IC. The SAP5 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 cost effective interconnection of sensors, actuators and switches. It transports both power and data over the same two wire unshielded cable. The device realizes power supply, physical data transfer and communication protocol handling and is fully compliant with AS interface complete specification V3.0. The SAP5 is optimized for harsh environments by it's special burst protection circuitry and excellent electromagnetic compatibility.
