E981.03: energy efficient and certified according to KNX specifications
V2.0
With KNX/EIB transceiver E981.03, ELMOS presents a high-performance
integrated component for connecting modules in building services
automation. The component has passed the conformity tests according to KNX
TP1-256 specifications V2.0 volume 4 and EIBA AN 149 and has been certified
by the KNX Association.
KNX is an open field bus standard for home and building system technology
for the exchange of data between KNX devices such as sensors, actuators,
control units, monitoring devices and user interfaces via the KNX
communication medium by which all the devices are connected. Devices made
by different manufacturers can be used together in the same system without
any restrictions as long as they have the relevant certification issued by
the KNX Association.
In such a system, the component E981.03 provides the connection between the
embedded 'intelligence' of a KNX device, the so-called host controller, and
the KNX medium of transport, in this case a twisted-pair cable. Available
interfaces with the host controller are a UART interface for data exchange
with a data rate of up to 115 kbit/s, providing for optional CRC
protection, and an SPI compatible interface for configuration and
diagnostics. The KNX application's voltage supply comes from the KNX bus
voltage. For this purpose, the transceiver internally provides two
independent voltage regulators and supports various energy-saving modes.
For example, the host controller can be put into standby mode with low
power consumption and woken up by special KNX wake-up frames transported
via the bus with the transceiver's help. Moreover, a configurable maximum
KNX bus load (determined by a maximum bus current and a maximum slew rate)
guarantees KNX compliant behavior even in cases of errors in the system.
The component comes in a QFN32L7 package with 0.65 mm pin pitch so that no
fine-pitch circuit boards are required.
