Description
UART to SDI-12 Module TBS05A for Digital Sensors
The UART to SDI-12 Module TBS05A from Tekbox is an interface that can be used to add an SDI-12 slave interface to digital sensors. The module is Plug and Play, targeting cost-sensitive data logging applications. It offers low power consumption, small footprint and easy integration into products that require an SDI-12 interface.
The TBS05A is an SDI-12 slave interface for digital sensors. The sensor can write up to 10 measurement values into the SRAM of the TBS05A, which can then be queried over the SDI-12 interface from an SDI-12 master.
The user does not need to invest any time in implementing the SDI-12 protocol and interface hardware, as this is an integral part of the SDI-12 UART interface module.
The TB05A contains all the necessary components of a complete SDI-12 interface. It includes the SDI-12 front end, controller, crystal and passive components.
The TBS05A is designed specifically for applications where cost, performance, time to market and ease of integration are important considerations.
