GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The
ezLINX
iCoupler
Isolated Interface Development
environment provides developers with a cost-effective, plug and
play method for evaluating eight physical Layer, digitally-
isolated communication standards(USB, RS-422, RS-485, RS-
232, CAN, SPI, I2C and LVDS). The Blackfin® ADSP-BF548
processor is used to run the uCLinux operating system and
allows for easy customization through the open source
hardware and software platform. Development time is
significantly reduced for embedded designers and system
architects who are designing and evaluating isolated
communication standards.The Interfaces on
ezLINX
use ADI's
isolated transceivers with integrated
iCoupler
and
isoPower®
digital isolator technology.
The Hardware of the
ezLINX iCoupler
isolated interface
development environment contains the ADSP-BF548 Blackfin
processor with 64MB of RAM and 32MB of Flash memory. The
Isolated Physical layer communication standards are
implemented using ADI's isolated transceivers with integrated
iCoupler
and
isoPower
technology. Included are the following:
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
Isolated USB using the ADuM3160
Isolated CAN using the ADM3053 Signal and Power
Isolated CAN transceiver
Isolated RS-485 and RS-422 using the ADM2587E
Signal and Power Isolated RS-485/RS-422 transceiver
Isolated RS-232 using the ADM3252E Signal and
Power Isolated RS-232 transceiver
Isolated I2C using the ADuM1250 and ADuM5000
Isolated SPI using the ADuM3401, ADuM3402 and
Isolated LVDS using the ADuM3442, ADuM5000,
