Ethernet is ubiquitous. As long as it is the protocol of choice in IT, and the cost of even industrially hardened Ethernet switches and I/O are low, Ethernet will remain the communication protocol of ...

The technology started with 10-Mb/s coax cabling (10BASE5). Twisted-pair and RJ45 connectors quickly replaced that, while fiber optics was implemented for high-speed, long-distance communication.

This application note presents the protocol conversion between Ethernet and USB. The document also presents the operating environment, the sample program operation overview and the specifications of ...
