Identification microchip VPC3+S

interface

profichip´s VPC3+S is a communication chip with 8 Bit parallel, SPI or I2C Microprocessor interface for intelligent PROFIBUS slave applications. The VPC3+S handles message and address identification, data security sequences and protocol processing for PROFIBUS-DP. In addition, the acyclic communication and alarm messages, described in DP-V1 extension, are supported. Slave-to-slave communication Data eXchange Broadcast (DXB) and the Isochronous Mode (IsoM), described in DP-V2 extension are also provided. Automatic recognition and support of data transmission rates up to 12 Mbit/s, the integration of the complete PROFIBUS-DP protocol, 4 KByte communication RAM and the flexible processor interface are features to create state-of-the-art PROFIBUS slave applications. SPI, I²C, parallel-interface 4 kByte communication RAM Function and software compatible with VPC3+C and SPC3 Supports PROFIBUS DP-V0, DP-V1 & DP-V2 protocols HW-PLL for DP-V2– ISOM Ultra Low Power, Vcc 3.3 V Software stack BGA48 / LQFP48 package or proficonn-module
