Bus termination
Bus termination is required to prevent signal reflections from the
bus cable ends. The FPBA-01 module is not equipped with
internal bus termination. Therefore, the D-SUB connectors at the
first and last modules of the bus must have built-on termination
switched on. See the diagram below.
The FPBA-01 module is able to supply power for an active-type
termination circuitry (30 mA max.).
