MB4U

BiSS, SSI, PC-USB 2.0 ADAPTER

Rev B2, Page 4/5

BiSS POWER SUPPLY CONTROL

The MB4U supplies VB and VDD voltages with allo-

cating and initializing the adapter. With closing the

adapter resource or the software the voltages are

turned off to permit a safe unplugging of connected de-

vices. The unpowering of VB and VDD requires a non

volatile content storaging before closing the interface

adapter in any software environment.

BiSS MASTER IP MB100

The MB4U is based on the MB100 BiSS master IP.

With this implementation it is possible to connect one

or more BiSS C devices or a single SSI device to

the adapter. BiSS C protocol is fully supported. The

adapter supports an unlimited count of BiSS C slave

devices.

With BiSS there is 10 MBit/s RS422 maximum clocking

available. The SSI protocol is also configurable.

With high speed buffered transfer the real-time mea-

sured data can be block-wise transferred to a Windows

PC application for analysis, documentation, data pro-

cessing, etc..

BiSS SOFTWARE ENVIRONMENT

iC-Haus Evaluation Software

iC-Haus BiSS software for PCs running on Windows operating systems as well as the required USB and/or

LPT driver are available as a ZIP file. iC-Haus software built with LabVIEW™requires the installation of the

LabVIEW™Run-Time Engine (RTE).

MB4U capable software and product DLLs are available on request (BiSS Reader GUI, iC-MN GUI, iC-LGC GUI,

iC-NQC GUI, iC-MH GUI).

iC-Haus BiSS Interface DLL

For custom software running on Windows operating systems the BiSS Interface DLL enables rapid software

development. Direct access to eval board adapter and high level protocol functions are directly available.
