design change in communication

[N1c084]

hi ,
what do you think about these mod to be able to have a better reliability and capacity in comm ?
VSS is the voltage from the other module, requested by the new opte 6N137

Module v440:

Hi. Are you planning to swap to a 3 pin connector for the comms ?

[N1c084]

Hi yes it is , I will made pcb with 14s and the wire will be between contrôler and 14s pcb > Hi. Are you planning to swap to a 3 pin connector for the comms ?

How about using something like VOH1016AD ?

That is almost a drop in replacement for the existing chip. Wouldn't need to change connector then either.

Although - this chip needs 3V minimum to work (perhaps there is a similar device?)

What's the problem you are trying to solve with the higher comms speed?

[N1c084]

Needs to drive 154 modules in one system So I want to be the more efficient and secure with com. This optocoupler support high speed compare to the actual Le dim. 6 nov. 2022 à 16:17, Stuart Pittaway ***@***.***> a écrit :

Ok. Are you really going to be working with +500VDC on this?

[N1c084]

This is the same , need 3 wires at output side. Le dim. 6 nov. 2022 à 16:15, Stuart Pittaway ***@***.***> a écrit :

No 😅 11p 14s 48V 😀 Le dim. 6 nov. 2022 à 16:30, Stuart Pittaway ***@***.***> a écrit :

That's a relief!!

Why do you need 3 wires?

A module is just driving the anode and cathode of the chip in the next module along the chain.

VOH1016AD

This isn't really that different to the existing chip - EL3H7

The VCC and GND are just the connections to the cell module, and the output goes into the ATTINY chip.

[stuartpittaway]

or a chip like the Toshiba TLP2301 - this should be good for up to 1Mbps (although the ATTINY won't go that fast!)

[N1c084]

Because all voltage need to come from the other board the stay isolated from the board , ground /vcc / output from second board Le dim. 6 nov. 2022 à 16:33, Stuart Pittaway ***@***.***> a écrit :

The isolator is on the RX so can be on the modules, so only two wires needed, just like now.

I will try with this chip, thanks
There is no new hardware release that coming in the next 6 month? I just received a batch of attiny 841

[stuartpittaway]

Yes, I'm going to release a new module version using a different attiny chip, because the 841 is difficult to order.

[N1c084]

there is no functional change or new features?

[stuartpittaway]

No function changes, the new attiny has some hardware improvement
