please Help about a RS485 network
PostPosted: Tue May 03, 2011 8:47 am     Reply with quote
Hi
I want to control a group of PIC's by a PC (half duplex). Because of long distance, I decided to make a network on RS485 protocol. In this way, I want to make a interface board that has a DB-9 connector and rs485 pins as inputs and outputs.
rs485 module can be a LTC485 or snSN65176B.
Please help me about this idea.
This is my idea:

Depending on the distance you need, consider using RJ-45 connectors and 'LAN' / 'Ethernet' premade cables. Cheap, twisted pairs, readily available up to 100' probably cost less than the price of 2 of DE-9 connectors. And no soldering required !

And even though you'll find those connectors listed as RJ45's, they're really just 8p8c (8position 8conductor) modular connectors since RJ45 actually stands for "Registered Jack" and means a lot more than just the connector type. :D

Cheers,

you could also use terminal blocks, as in industrial systems.
