What is the HART protocol?
Data communication over analog signals is a common process. In automation, the data is communicated to and from controllers with several different process instruments. Quality is important as the controllers and smart instruments must communicate over long distances. Additionally, the data communication between a device and a controller must be dictated by a protocol (i.e. […]
Open VPX backplanes designed for horizontal- mount enclosures
Pixus Technologies has announced new OpenVPX backplanes designed for horizontal-mount enclosures. The horizontal-mount backplanes can be placed into 1U-4U tall 19” rackmount OpenVPX enclosures. They provide enough space to have three 3U slots or one 3U and one 6U slot side-by-side. So, a wide range of configurations and size options are available. The backplanes are […]
