Since many industrialdevices still use EIA-232 ports, it is necessary to use converters to interface a device toother physical interface st<strong>and</strong>ards. Interface converters can also be used to increase theeffective distance between two EIA-232 devices.The most common converters are:• EIA-232/422• EIA-232/485• EIA-232/current loopFigure 5.2 is a block diagram of an EIA-232/EIA-485 converter.EIA-232EIA-232 to EIA-485ConverterEIA-485MPTxDRxD232 232232232DRA A485B B485A A485 B B 485RxDTxDMPComComFigure 5.2Block structure of EIA-232/EIA-485 converterFigure 5.3 shows a circuit-wiring diagram.
