ABOUT 3936
The Model 3936 U-Port Adapter is a single-width module providing auxiliary loop control when used with a Type L-2 serial crate controller (SCC) such as the Model 3952 or with a Serial Highway Driver such as the Model 3992 or 3994 operated in bitserial mode. The Model 1736 U-Port Adapter is used with the2050- or 2160-Series Serial Highway Drivers. Only power connections are made to the Dataway.

A Serial Highway Driver and Type L-2 SCCs operated in bit-serial mode may be interconnected by a loop consisting of two pair, one for clock and one for data. While this connection is satisfactory for many applications, auxiliary loop control may be needed. The 3933 and 3936 can be used to enhance serial system operation in the following ways:

  1. They provide bypass and loop collapse under control of the associated TypeL-2 SCC.
  2. They provide a multiplexed signal and transformer isolation. This reduces interference with the data signals in high-noise environments as well asallowing for increased operating speed and/or distance.

 

Features
  • Single-loop (3936) and dual-loop (3933) modules available
  • Transformer isolation of Serial Highway for high-noise environments
  • Biphase multiplexing provides transformer-compatible signals over a single pair
  • Bypass and loop collapse are provided
  • Meets IEEE-583 and IEEE-595 requirements
  • Clock restorer allows many units in tandem at high speeds
  • Active signal repeater in return path
Applications
  • Transformer-isolated highway for serial crate controllers and serial drivers
  • Auxiliary loop control for Type L-2 serial crate controllers
  • Serial systems in a high common-mode noise environment
  • Serial systems with higher operating speeds over longer distances than can beobtained with D-Port connections
