PCI Fault Insertion Switch Range for Differential Serial Interfaces
50-200/201
Pickering Interfaces, a leading supplier of modular signal switching for electronic test and simulation, is expanding its range of PCI Fault Insertion switching with the introduction of two new modules (models 50-200 and 50-201) designed for use with differential serial interfaces. PCI Fault Insertion Switch Cards for Differential Serial InterfacesThe new modules include the Differential PCI Fault Insertion Switch (model 50-200) which is designed for lower data rate serial interfaces such as CAN and FlexRay, and the High Bandwidth Differential PCI Fault Insertion Switch (model 50-201) which is designed for higher data rate serial interfaces such as AFDX and 1000BaseT Ethernet. Each module allows the introduction of fault connections that include data paths open, data paths shorted together, and data paths shorted to externally applied faults such as power supplies and ground. The software driver defaults to a protective mode where conflicting faults are prevented to avoid accidentally shorting unintended paths, such as power to ground. A separate mode allows complete freedom in setting fault patterns.

Serial Production Mark Quality Control
The control system is based on the Sick IVC smart camera, which not only captures, but also processes the image. After training on the font samples, the system practically does not require the operator's attention in addition to setting the current marking for control. The character set can be specified by the operator or transmitted via the interface from the printer or from the enterprise information system.The camera software works autonomously: it loads all settings from the camera's permanent memory, initializes the backlight electronics and waits for a signal from the object presence sensor. When a signal is received from the sensor (an object in the shooting area), the camera captures the frame, searches for markings and analyzes the symbols for their compliance with the exemplary set.

8 Serial Communication Channels, Programmable RS-232/422/485 Non-Isolated
SC3
Serial Communication Module SC3 provides up to 8 high-speed, programmable RS-232, RS-422, RS-485, non-isolated communication channels. Each channel is programmable for either Serial Communications (SC) protocol or General Purpose I/O (GPIO) modes as either RS-422/485 (differential) or RS-232 (single ended) hardware level interfaces.
