Does the loading of an RS485 transceiver depend on the length of the cable used?

Will the loading of the device while using a 1km long cable be the same as if I use, for eg, a 10m cable? to a first approximation it will be the same load, the characteristic impedance of a cable ...

Does the loading of an RS485 transceiver depend on the length of the cable used?

Will the loading of (an RS-485) device while using a 1km long cable be the same as if I use, for eg, a 10m cable?" The short answer is no. How will you test the step response and symbol rate ...

Does the loading of an RS485 transceiver depend on the length of the cable used?

I'm assuming you are parallel terminating the cable at the destination, with ~100 ohms? Then the DC loading will be less because of the resistance of the cable, which is in series with the ...

Does the loading of an RS485 transceiver depend on the length of the cable used?

A cable has capacitance per unit length described in data sheet. A 1000 meter cable has 100 times the capacitance of 10 meter cable. Charging the wire capacitance does provide additional load that ...

Feasibility of high-speed omnidirectional communication through infrared light

The Ronja/Twibright Labs folks have been successful at transmitting 10BASE Ethernet over an optical link back in the 90s. With a higher power transmitter it should work for short range omnidirectional ...

CANopen - explanation of TPDO and RPDO

The documentation is correct. You can't have two nodes on the bus with the same COB-ID's. RPDO sends message to the COB-ID of the TPDO. That way the TPDO can receive it. The TPDO replies by ...

USB-C port as a power delivery and data transfer

Your device has 10k or 22k resistors to 5V. The role is fixed to be a DFP, which means it sources power and is a data host, and can't change role.
