The CDN367 is a compact RS422/485 to DeviceNet serial gateway. The unit is housed in a 2½ X 3¼ plastic housing with mounting tabs. A 5 pin micro connector provides the DeviceNet interface and a 9 pin D connector provides the RS422/485 interface. The DeviceNet channel is fully isolated from the supplied power.
The CDN367 may be used to interface peripheral devices to a DeviceNet system. The RS422/485 serial stream is internally buffered, allowing a Master node to send and receive data using standard DeviceNet messaging.
The power is conditioned by a loss-of-ground protection circuit and applied to a non-isolated DC-DC converter to provide 5 volts @ 500 mA. A Newport NML0505S isolated DC-DC converter to provide power to the DeviceNet channel.
