Project6 Smart Serial Adapter
Description
The purpose of the project is to design the hardware of Smart
Serial Adapter and improve the performance in terms of
accuracy, cost and electromagnetic compatibility
Product / Project Overview
The Smart Serial Adapter can be operated in 2 modes:
RS232 or USB to RS485 pass-thru adapter
Host controller using a Atmega2560uC
1. Pass thru Adapter:
In this mode, RS232 and USB are connected to the PC. The data
from RS232/USB is serially transferred to RS485 using pass thru
adapter. A jumper switch is used to select the device from RS232
and USB. The data received by the serial adapter is transferred
to RS485 in both full duplex and half duplex modes.
2. Stand-alone host:
In this mode, we can use it as a stand-alone host which can
measure the charge of Li-ion battery pack and also it can handle
some external interfaces to connect to other PCs. This can be
done by interfacing an ATMEGA 2560 microcontroller with the
serial adapter. This microcontroller is pre-programmed which
executes simple ASCII command strings and is compatible with
standard terminal programs like Hyper Terminal.
