Tews' TIP813 is an IndustryPack®-compatible module and provides a complete LON interface using the NEURON Chip 3150.

The communication is executed via a 4Kbyte dual port RAM. A 32Kbyte EPROM is used to store the protocol firmware of the NEURON chip 3150 and the application program. All modules have a PROM with the protocol firmware and the MIP/DPR host interface software preinstalled.

Four kinds of onboard physical interface are available: The TIP813-10 supports standard RS485 and power-line interface. The TIP813-20 supports transformer coupled 1.25 Mbit interface and the TIP813-21 uses a 78 kbit transformer coupled interface. The TIP813-30 supports the free topology twisted pair interface based on the ECHELON FTT-10A transceiver.

The complete network communication port of the NEURON Chip is routed to the IndustryPack I/O connector of the TIP813-10. This allows extreme flexibility to interface other physical media, i.e. optically isolated RS485 or power-line interface by a separate transition module. The TIP813-TM-10 transition module together with the TIP813-10 support optically isolated standard RS485 on DB-9 connector.
