Fieldbus interface circuit board supporting multiple interface types and terminations

摘要

An interface circuit board apparatus can include a shared circuit board (100) base, a transceiver section (115) disposed on the circuit board (100) base, and having circuit transceiver sites configured to receive a plurality of transceiver component types, a termination section (110) disposed on the circuit board (100) base, and having circuit termination sites configured to receive a plurality of termination component types, and a connection section (125) operatively coupled to the transceiver and termination sections (115, 110), wherein the transceiver section (115), the termination section (110) and the connection section (125) are configurable to support a plurality of interface types based on the plurality of transceiver component types and the plurality of termination component types.
