FF基金会现场总线——过程设备数字化的驱动力

Foundation^(TM) Fieldbus——The Power of Digital for your Process Devices

基金会现场总线是专门设计用于过程控制应用的实时数字通信网络,在所有过程自动化技术中,基金会现场总线具有硬件占用空间最小的特点。基金会现场总线技术旨在提供Virtual Marshalling^(TM)解决方案——基于软件的分布式I/O连通性。该解决方案中设备通过相同的两个端子提供多个信号,不再依靠自定义硬件配置完成传统编组功能,基金会现场总线通过基于软件的结构执行这些任务。

Foundation fieldbus is a real-time digital communication network designed specifically forprocess control applications, Foundation fieldbus has the smallest hardware footprint of any technology in process automation. Foundation technology was developed to provide a solution for Virtual Marshalling^TM—software-based distributed I/O connectivity—in which devices provide multiple signals over the same two terminals. Instead of relying on custom hardware configurations to accomplish the functions of traditional marshalling, Foundation fieldbus performs these tasks through a software-based structure.
