FMOD-TCP DB - Ethernet to Serial, I/O, A/D and I2C Converter

This TCP/IP server board allows manufacturers and system integrators connect their different devices such as home appliances and industrial control systems directly to the Ethernet network, and remotely monitor & control them with standard TCP-IP protocols.

The FMod-TCP DB allows a fast integration in final product during production. A development kit and software libraries are available for fast conception process.

Connections available on boards on the DEVICE side are:

• One UART bus
• One I2C bus
• 19 5V digital I/O
• 5 5V analog inputs

From the COMMUNICATION side, an Ethernet bus allows the use of the following protocols: ICMP (ping), UDP, TCP and HTTP in order to send the data to the dedicated application layer.

Figure at right explains how this product can be used.

A dedicated Win32 software and a sample Java Applet (with source code) are available.

A development kit is also available and contains the following items:

• FMod-TCP DB board
• A mother board will all signals availables on a SIL connector, a UART-RS232 transceiver, an I2C temp sensor and a potentiometer.
• RJ45 cross-cable
• 5V power supply
• User manual
• CD-ROM with a dedicated software and the default Java applet source code.
