CFA633 USB LCD

Features:

• New in hardware version v1.5a / firmware version v1.9:
  • "X,Y" LCD command to allow partial updates of the LCD
  • 115,200 baud supported
  • Advanced digital GPIO control with PWM output
  • Application note on connecting DS1963S SHA ibutton
• Compact and fully integrated user interface for "Communication Appliance" applications
• LED backlit STN 16x2 LCD
• Integrated LED backlit 6-button translucent silicon keypad with screened legend
• Bi-directional 19200/115200 baud ESD protected RS-232 interface
• Robust packet based communications protocol with 16-bit CRC
• Compact size: fits in a 1U rack mount case (35mm overall height)
• ATX power supply control functionality allows the buttons on the CFA-633 to replace the "power" and "reset" buttons on your system, simplifying your front panel design
• Built-in re-programmable microcontroller
• Four fan connectors with RPM monitoring or variable PWM fan power control
• "Fail-Safe" fan power setting allows safe host fan control based on temperature
• Temperature monitoring: up to 32 channels at up to 0.5 deg C absolute accuracy. Ready-to-use WRDOWY17. Dallas Semiconductor 1-Wire temperature sensors are optional. Alternatively, you can create your own sensors using DS1822 or DS18B20 parts and the tutorial on creating sensors here.
• Non-volatile memory ("EEPROM") capability: Customize the "power-on" display settings plus a 16-byte "scratch" register for storing IP, netmask, system serial number, etc.
• RS-232 to Dallas Semiconductor 1-Wire bridge functionality allows control of other 1-Wire compatible devices (ADC, voltage monitoring, current monitoring, RTC, GPIO, counters, identification/encryption, additional hardware required)
• Customizable firmware and configurable hardware can be modified at the factory to add specific features for your system needs. Minimum order and tooling fee may apply for custom firmware:
  • Analog I/O
  • Provide "dongle" functionality for system copy protection
  • Autonomous hardware monitoring
  • Customize the "power-on" settings
• 5.25" half-height drive-bay mounting bracket available (optional)
