fido5100/fido5200 Real-Time Ethernet Switches

Analog Devices’ fido5x00 Ethernet switches are suited for process control and industrial automation

Image of Analog Devices' fido5100 and fido5200 Ethernet SwitchesADI's fido5100 and fido5200 (REM switches) are programmable IEEE 802.3 10 Mbps/100 Mbps Ethernet Internet Protocol Version 6 (IPv6) and Internet Protocol Version 4 (IPv4) switches supporting virtually any Layer 2 or Layer 3 protocol. The switches are personalized to support the desired protocol by firmware downloaded from a host processor.

The firmware is in the real-time Ethernet multiprotocol (REM) switch driver and is downloaded at power-up. The REM switch can be ready for network data operation in less than 4 ms to support fast startup and quick connect type network functionality. The REM switch devices have the same signal assignments as defined in the datasheet.

The fido5100 supports the PROFINET real-time (RT) and isochronous real-time (IRT), EtherNet/IP with and without device level ring (DLR), Modbus TCP, and POWERLINK protocols.

The fido5200 supports EtherCAT and all protocols defined for the fido5100.

The REM switch is intended for use with a host processor. Network operation is handled using the functions and services provided in the REM switch driver. The host processor can implement any protocol stack by integrating it with the REM switch driver. An example application is shown in Figure 11 in the datasheet.

The REM switches are available in a 144-ball chip scale package ball grid array (CSP_BGA) package.
