B. Serial Interface Piggybacks
B.1 General
The serial interface (SI) piggybacks described herein adapt the multi-protocol serial
channels of the 68EN360 controller chip to one of the following physical interfaces:
•
10Base2 (thin or cheapernet) Ethernet,
•
10Base5 (AUI) Ethernet,
•
10BaseT (twisted pair) Ethernet,
•
RS-232 modem compatible,
•
RS485 optoisolated (PROFIBUS),
and are available for a wide variety of PEP CPU boards.
