I2C RS232 Adapter (Slave)
The I2C-RS232-Adapter is an universal usable I2C-Tool. With the I2C-RS232-Adapter as I2C-Slave, several RS232 end device (e.g. PC, µcontroller) can be connected at an I2C-Bus. The slave address can be programmed freely over the serial interface. The data of a master are temporarily stored in the I2C-RS232-Adapter and then transmitted through the serial interface. A data package may be maximal 128 bytes.
The data, which a seriel device receives (e.g. PC, microcontroller), can be processed and then sent back to the I2C-RS232-Adapter. Here the data packet may be also maximally 128 bytes. So that the I2C-RS232-Adapter can get the function of a master, the I2C-RS232-Adapter controls two Interrupt outputs. An Interrupt output can be selected over the serial interface while sending data to the adapter.
Following are the different types we offer:
-
RS-Model: This type is controlled only via the serial interface (RS232). The communication is done through ASCII commands.
-
IC-Model: This type is controlled only via the I2C-Bus. The communication is done through I2C commands. The RS232 interface is transparent.
With the many possibilities of the Adapter it is very simple to define/program own I2C-Slaves when connetced to a PC or a microcontroller.
Therefore the tool is suitable for developers, who would like to develop and/or test own I2C-circuits. The Adapter can be a PCF8574, PCF8574A, temperature sensor or any other slave with any (7-bit) slave address.
With a PC or microcontroller the Adapter can be used also to control devices with I2C-Interface (Master), e.g. the camera modul from Sony “RPU-C251 / C352”. For software development, a Delphi component, a DLL, examples and data transmission protocol of the Adapter are available for developer. When using the software interfaces, the Adapter can be integrated very simply into own applications
