NCN5150SOICGEVB

NCN5150SOICGEVB is an evaluation board that demonstrates the NCN5150 M-BUS transceiver in a SOIC package. This evaluation board includes all external components needed for operating NCN5150 and demonstrates the small PCB surface area such an implementation requires. The NCN5150 is a single-chip integrated transceiver for use in two-wire Meter Bus (M-BUS) devices and repeaters. The transceiver provides all of the functions needed to satisfy the Europea Standards EN 13757−2 and EN 1434−3 describing the physical layer requirements for M-BUS. Applications include multi-energy utility meters, water, gas, electricity and heating systems.
