Basic Stamps and RS485

Archiver

I intend to build a network of six basic stamps for data collection, Using
RS485. I have however not worked with RS485 on the interface level before.
I welcome Ideas on how it is Implemented.

Take a look at the following from the TI website [noparse][[/noparse]www.ti.com ] fortypical line drivers and designs guges, respectively:

········Driver - [noparse]/noparse][url=http://www.ti.com/sc/docs/products/analog/sn75lbc176.html]http://www.ti.com/sc/docs/products/analog/sn75lbc176.html[/url

········Design Guide SLLA036 (slla036a.pdf)

Then go to the Parallax website [noparse][[/noparse] www.parallaxinc.com ] and download the RS-485 App Mod PDF from the products section:

········SN75175·(sn75176.pdf)

and the code from the Download section:


········SN75176 RS-485 Communication.pdf

Additional Documentation (from the PDF):

········Network protocol using RS-485 ··[noparse][[/noparse] http://www.jdrichards.com ]

That should get you started.

I have many links to RS-485 info and a project that uses Stamps here:

Take a look at B&B's and R.E. Smith's application notes. natsemi.com also
has some good application notes.
