Analog Devices showcases two groundbreaking industrial connectivity solutions: 10BASE-T1L Ethernet and IO-Link. These technologies offer efficient communication, reduced cabling costs, and improved performance for factory automation and process control applications.
Analog Devices demonstrates two cutting-edge industrial connectivity solutions at Embedded World in Nuremberg: 10BASE-T1L Ethernet and IO-Link. Both products target industrial applications, with unique features that benefit engineers in various ways.
- 10BASE-T1L Ethernet: This innovative technology uses a single twisted pair cable to transmit data over distances of up to one kilometre at 10 Mbps. This solution reduces cabling costs and allows retrofitting using pre-installed cables. Additionally, it supports power over a single pair (PoE), making it an attractive option for powering devices and transmitting data simultaneously.
- IO-Link: Focused on factory automation, IO-Link is designed for highly modular factory floors with numerous sensors and actuators. Analog Devices offers a comprehensive portfolio for IO-Link, including master and device-side solutions. The technology enables offloading of routine communication tasks from the main processor, allowing it to focus on critical and time-sensitive operations.
