BiSS & SSI Master / Slave
Introductions
Synchronous Serial Interface (SSI) is serial interface standard used mostly in industrial applications, two units defined – Master and Slave.
Bi-Directional Synchronous Serial Interface (BiSS) supersedes the SSI protocol and compatible with the SSI, BiSS enable bi-directional communication which enables implementation of internal registers in the slave unit. BiSS support higher fan-out, higher bandwidth and longer lines on the bus. SSI and BiSS use RS422 physical interface,
Spring Electronics SSI & BiSS IP Core support variety of applications, Slave and Master units, Multi master and multi slave option, Back to Back – Master Slave and more.
