The SI5150 includes, pre-programmed into the microcontroller, a special version of Tiny Machine Basic, Industrologic's simple programming language, written for the hardware on the SI5150. By using this language the user can quickly and easily program the SI5150 to perform a number of tasks, including controlling the digital I/O line or sending character strings to a host computer in response to contact closures. The microcontroller chip can also be re-programmed using any number of software development tools available for similar Atmel microcontrollers.

The SI5150 printed circuit board is designed to mount directly into the Bud Industries PRM-14460 ABS rack/table mount enclosure. This enclosure can be quickly converted from rack mounting to table top use and includes all required brackets for both configurations.

• Based on the Atmel AT89C4051 microcontroller operating at 11.0592 MHZ
• 50 switch/contact closure inputs with LED indicators to show on/off status
• 1 digital logic level signal usable as an interrupt input, general purpose input, or output
• 1 internal auxiliary I/O board connection, a digital logic level signal, +5 volts, and ground
• Convenient screw terminal block connections for all contact closure and digital I/O connections
• Serial RS-232 port with true RS-232 interface and DB9F connector matching PC compatibles
• General purpose software readable pushbutton switch and software programmable LED
• 512 byte EEPROM for storage of small programs or configuration information
• On-board +5 volt power supply including screw terminal connection for external circuitry
• Pin-type power connector for easy connection to wall block power supplies
• Tiny Machine Basic programming language for the SI5150 programmed into the microcontroller
• EEPROM based AT89C4051 can be re-programmed using common Intel 8051/Atmel AT89Cxx51 software development tools and device programmer

Operating environment:
Temperature: 0-50 degrees Celsius (32-122 Fahrenheit)
Humidity: 30 to 80 percent, non-condensing

Logic level digital I/O signal (INT)-
(10K pull-up resistor to +5, 0.01uf capacitor to ground)
Contact or external signal sink current required: 0.5 mA
Output source current: 0.5 mA
Output sink current: 20 mA maximum each pin

Switch/contact closure signals (1-50)-
(330 ohm pull-up resistor through LED to +5, 0.1uf to ground)
Contact or external signal sink current required: 10 mA
Recommended maximum contact closure resistance to ground: 100 ohms

Internal auxiliary I/O board connection-
Digital logic level signal directly to microcontroller pin
+5 volts at 100mA maximum
Ground

To facilitate the connection of devices requiring power to the SI5150, the +5 volt signal from the on-board regulator has been connected to pin 9 of the serial connector. This connection will not affect normal serial ports since +5 volts is within the range of allowable voltages on RS-232 input pins.

The following is a pin out of the serial port signals:

SI5150 signal   -    TX   RX   -    GND  -    -    -    +5 OUT
pin             1    2    3    4    5    6    7    8    9
PC signal       DCD  RX   TX   DTR  GND  DSR  RTS  CTS  RI

It is possible to drive the contact closure inputs with devices that contain digital logic output circuitry, but this circuitry must be able to sink the required current. A number of driver chips, and many transistors have this ability, but some do not. The user is responsible for insuring that damage does not occur to the external device as a result of sinking the required current.

The limitations of the digital logic level signal INT is the same as that of the microcontroller chip installed. It can "sink" 20 milliamperes when used as a digital output. The addition of the 10K pullup resistors allows INT to "source" 0.5 milliamperes. For more information on the limitations of this signal, see the data sheet.

The +5 signal on the screw terminal connector is the same power supply that is used by the circuitry on the SI5150, and can be used to power external devices. The current drawn from this signal should be limited to 100 milliamperes.
