RS-232 to Current Loop Converter, DB25 Male/DB25 Female <b>Quick Facts</b>

- Bidirectional conversion of RS-232 to 20-mA Current Loop.
- Active or passive operation.
- Features optical isolation.
- Compact size.

<b>Further Details</b>

Use this RS-232–Current Loop Converter to connect a digital 20-mA Current Loop interface to the RS-232 port on your PC.

The converter can be configured for active or passive Current Loop. In active mode, an async RS-232 device can communicate with a passive 20-mA Current Loop device. In passive mode, an async RS-232 device can communicate with an active 20-mA Current Loop device.

This compact solution is configured as RS-232 (DCE), but it can be modified for DTE use with an asynchronous modem eliminator (such as our ME212).

The converter has a Transmit (T+ and T-) and a Receive (R+ and R-) loop. Optical isolators in both the transmit and receive loops keep out electrical interference and eliminate ground loops.
