Development and Prototyping X2 Series Expansion Boards - Strato Pi Max
Expand the capabilities of your Strato Pi MAX with the X2 Series Expansion Boards. Designed for industrial automation, prototyping, and reliable communication, these boards provide CAN and RS-485 interfaces with galvanic isolation, ensuring stable and safe performance even in demanding environments.
DESCRIPTION
The X2BS10XC44 expansion board adds one galvanically isolated CAN V2.0B port and two isolated RS-485 serial interfaces. The CAN bus is managed through the Compute Module’s SPI connection, while the RS-485 ports are handled via an onboard FTDI FT2232HQ high-speed USB 2.0 dual-channel UART/serial converter.
FEATURES
- CAN V2.0B port supporting data rates up to 1 Mb/s with optical isolation and ESD protection
- Two RS-485 ports with galvanic isolation and ESD protection, up to 115.200 bps
- Independent isolation between CAN and RS-485 interfaces
- Configurable TX/RX echo on RS-485 ports
- Front-panel LEDs for power, CAN, and RS-485 activity
- Integrated 3.3 V regulator, EEPROM DS28E05, and optional pluggable terminal block
