Hart Loopback Issues

11/20/2013 5:33 AM

I am using EVB HART MODEM QFN and facing the issue of loopback after connecting it to UART.Is there any solution to this??

At present I am using single modem and getting the correct wave forms for transmitter which means that there is no issue with the Transmission side but we want to do the loopback and check the receiver as we are not getting any data on receiver side.

Since we have not connected anything to the evaluation board and just evaluating the HART evaluation board by doing loop back only.I mean checking the communication of Evaluation board only.


Is it possible to have a loopback with the single modem or we require more than one modems for it?


Connections that we have made are :-


1.From PC we have connected USB to TTL converter.


2.From TTL converter we are connecting Signals like Rx,Tx,RTS,Vcc and GND(all parameters are for IDC1).


3.We shorted two pins TxA and RxA(that belongs to IDC 2,pin no 7 and 3)


In Terminal Emulator we have selected BAUD rate-1200,PARITY-EVEN,Handshaking-RTS on Tx.

Secondly for sample master implementation they have specified OPAMP U1(Page no 17 in attachment) but there is no part number for it so I need that part number.

I don't see the attachment.

Try disabling the RTS handshaking, as you would have to connect CTS on the RX side back to RTS.

http://www.onsemi.com/pub_link/Collateral/A5191HRTNGEVB_MANUAL.PDFThis is the link to that PDF.

I cannot do that because if I am going to disable it then there will be no transmitted data.It is showing interlock that is at a time we can only transmit or receive data.

3rd paragraph, 1st page:

To conserve power the receive circuits are disabled during transmit operations and vice versa. This provides the half−duplex operation used in HART communications.
