PCI Express communication card with I/O processor CIFX 90E-DPF

Overview
The cifX PC card family is the unified standard supporting Real-Time Ethernet and Fieldbus systems for PC-based automation. The protocol stack is executed autonomously on the PC card and process data is exchanged with the host via Dual-Port Memory (DPM) or DMA. All PC cards use the same driver and tools due to the common Hilscher Platform Strategy. netX technology enables multiple Real-Time Ethernet protocols on the same hardware; protocols can be changed by loading different firmware. Multiple hardware options are available (different cable lengths, M12 connectors, additional NVRAM, extended temperature range, 2-channel cards, detached network interfaces). A wide range of device drivers and a free C-Toolkit are available.

Highlights

• Universal PROFIBUS DP PC card (Master or Slave)
• Uniform user interface for all protocols and card formats
• Easy integration due to a large variety of drivers
• Data access via Dual-Port Memory (DPM) or direct memory access (DMA)
• Includes a detached network interface (15 cm or 30 cm)

Supported protocols

• PROFIBUS DP Master
• PROFIBUS DP Slave
