Programmable BASIC Ethernet Module

Description

Based on the second generation of T2000 ASIC microcontrollers, the TIBBO EM500 module features a 10/100BaseT auto-MDIX Ethernet port (Ethernet connector not included), one serial port, 8 I/O lines, 512 kB of flash memory (192 kB Tios – 320 kB for application), and 200 bytes of EEPROM for data storage. Fully supported by the TIDE software (see “TIDE and Tibbo BASIC manual”).

Technical Specifications

• Based on the second generation of T2000 ASIC microcontrollers
• One serial port (CMOS level):
  – Baud rate up to 460800 bps
  – None/even/odd/mark/space parity modes
  – 7/8 bits/character modes
  – Full-duplex mode with optional flow control
  – Half-duplex mode with direction control
  – Encoding and decoding of Wiegand and clock/data streams
• 512 kB of flash memory for firmware and application
• 200 bytes of EEPROM for data storage
• 8 general-purpose I/O lines (of which 2 interrupt lines)
• Control lines for two external dual-function status LEDs
• Requires external reset
• Firmware: updatable via serial port or network (including “cold upgrade” firmware uploads through the network)
