DMA PCI Express communication card CIFX 90E-2COETF

dual-output

Description
The cifX PC card family provides a unified standard supporting Real-Time Ethernet and fieldbus systems for PC-based automation. Protocol stacks run independently on the card and exchange process data with the host via Dual-Port Memory or DMA. The common cifX platform strategy ensures the same driver and tooling across protocols and card formats. netX-based technology enables implementation of Real-Time Ethernet protocols on a single hardware platform and allows protocol changes via firmware update.

Key features

• Two CANopen interfaces (configurable as Master or Slave) in a single Mini PCI Express slot
• Uniform user interface for all protocols and card formats
• Easy integration with a wide range of drivers
• Data access via Dual-Port Memory or Direct Memory Access (DMA)
• Includes separate network cable options (15 cm or 30 cm)
• Extended operating temperature versions up to +70 °C
