FUNCTIONS
Compact coupling transformer for LonWorks® applications
The BV2021-8 combines minimal space requirements with full compatibility with Free Topology and Link Power networks based on the LonWorks® protocol.
Compact design
Very small size — ideal for products with limited space for the LonWorks® interface.
FT/LP-compatible
Can be used equally in Free Topology and Link Power networks.
FT-X3® alternative
Direct replacement for the FT-X3® coupling transformer in numerous applications.
Echelon®-tested
Developed and tested in accordance with the Echelon® compatibility specification.
COMPATIBILITY
Broad transceiver and microcontroller support
The BV2021-8 was originally developed for the FT 5000® — but also supports newer transceivers and modern microcontrollers.
Echelon® FT 5000® Smart Transceiver
The BV2021-8 was originally developed and optimized for use with the Echelon® FT 5000® Smart Transceiver.
FT 6050® Smart Transceiver
Full support also for the newer FT 6050® Smart Transceiver as the direct successor to the FT 5000®.
Microcontrollers with FetLON stack
Use with current microcontrollers that have a FetLON stack — for flexible and future-proof designs.
Compliant with international standards
The BV2021-8 is compatible with LonWorks® networks that use the protocol according to the following standards:
Space-saving alternative to the FT-X3®
Thanks to its very small size, the BV2021-8 is ideal for products where a small footprint of the entire LonWorks® interface is an important product requirement.
