MPL AG offers serial interface for communication like RS232, RS422, RS485
and current loop. The boards are easy to integrate and to use. The RS232
allows basic, short distance connections to terminals, printers, modems etc.
The RS422, RS485 and the 20 mA current loop allow connections over longer
distances with high noise immunity. For critical applications, where ground
loops should be avoided, versions with opto isolation are available.
See also the "SIMM Modules" for
additional products.
