// OVERVIEW
The BiSS Interface Platform
BiSS Interface
The BiSS (Bidirectional Serial Synchronous) Interface enables high-speed isochronous data transmissions for sensors and actuators. With features like line delay compensation, multi-slave capabilities and the possibility to access the memory ressources of the slaves, BiSS has become a popular global standard.
BiSS Safety
BiSS Safety is a profile definition for BiSS that has been certified by TÜV Rheinland for safety-critical applications up to SIL3 according to IEC61508:2010. BiSS Safety defines the data channel contents in order to ensure failure mode detection as defined in IEC61784-3 using redundant position words, different CRC polynomials and a sign-of-life counter.
BiSS Line
BiSS Line is a one-cable technology based on BiSS. It enables a combined power and data transmission over just two wires based on the RS485 half-duplex transmission standard. BiSS Line is fully compatible to BiSS and all of its features including low jitter, control communication and short cycle times. Data availability is ensured by a forward error correction (FEC) which is suitable to repair up to four corrupted bytes.
