SBUS til RS232 Konverter RS232 til SBUS | UAV Fjernbetjening Data Interface Board

SBUS til RS232 Konverter RS232 til SBUS

SBUS → RS232 / RS232 → SBUS Converter Board

For UAV, UGV, USV Telemetry & Long-Range Remote Control Systems

Oversigt

Denne SBUS to RS232 or RS232 to SBUS directional converter board is a customized professional solution designed for unmanned systems such as Uavs, på UGV, USVs, and robotic platforms.
It enables reliable conversion between non-standard SBUS remote control signals og standard serielle kommunikationsprotokoller (RS232 eller UART-kompatibel serie).

Modulet løser fuldt ud det langvarige problem med SBUS-inkompatibilitet med computere, MCU'er, telemetri radioer, og netværksenheder, lave SBUS-data direkte anvendelig som en standard seriel grænseflade uden at kræve, at brugerne håndterer kompleks protokolparsing.

Dette produkt er meget udbredt i:

• Langrækkende drone fjernbetjening

• Trådløs telemetriudvidelse

• Jordrobotstyring

• Fjernnetværk til køretøjer

• Industriel automation med RC-indgang

Technology Highlights

Avanceret protokolsupport (Opgraderet version)

• Understøtter fuldt ud SBUS2 protokol

• Bagudkompatibel med Sbus

• Kompatibel med WBUS (SkyRC / Tiandi Fei)

• Kompatibel med DE GÅR (FlySky)

Dette betyder selv de nyeste SBUS2-modtagere kan afkodes korrekt, at sikre langsigtet kompatibilitet.

Why SBUS Cannot Be Used Directly

SBUS er en digital kontrolprotokol oprindeligt udviklet af Futaba.
Selvom det ligner UART, det er ikke en standard seriel protokol.

SBUS Characteristics:

• Baud rate: 100 kbps

• Data format: 1 start bit, 2 stop bits, jævn paritet

• Inverted logic level

• Packed bit-level channel data (11 bits per channel)

Because of this:

• Most MCUs and computers cannot read SBUS directly

• Even if 100k baud is supported, error rates are extremely high

• No built-in checksum in standard SBUS

• Not suitable for long-distance wired or wireless transmission

---

What Our Module Does

Our converter module:

• Converts SBUS electrical levels → standard logic levels

• Converts non-standard SBUS frames → standard serial data

• Decodes SBUS into directly usable integer channel values

• Optionally re-encodes data back into SBUS format

After conversion, SBUS can be treated like a normal serial port, allowing developers to focus on application logic instead of protocol complexity.

Product Variants & Functional Options

1. 100k Transparent Transmission Version (Not Recommended)

• Outputs raw SBUS format (100k baud, 2 stop bits, jævn paritet)

• Limited compatibility

• High risk of packet loss

• Anbefalede only for special testing purposes

---

2. Adjustable Baud Rate Version (Highly Recommended)

• Converts SBUS to standard serial baud rates:

  • 9600

  • 38400

  • 57600

  • 115200

• Standard format:

  • 1 start bit

  • 1 stop lidt

  • No parity

• Much lower error rate

• Compatible with most MCUs, radios, and computers

---

3. Adjustable Baud Rate + Adjustable Frame Rate

SBUS frames:

• 25 bytes per frame

• Default frame interval: 7–15 ms

Many telemetry radios, wired links, and wireless networks cannot handle such high frame rates, causing:

• Buffer overflow

• Packet loss

• System freeze

Our module allows frame interval adjustment:

• Adjustable from 20 ms til 500 Frk

• 14 selectable levels

• Optimeret til:

  • Long-range telemetry radios

  • 4G / LTE / IP networks

  • Wireless bridges

---

4. Adjustable Baud Rate + Integrated SBUS Encode / Decode

Without Encoding:

• Users must manually pack 16 channels into SBUS

• Requires:

  • Bit shifting

  • Frame timing control

  • Packet loss detection

  • Complex validation

• High CPU usage

• Risk of:

  • Control jitter

  • Signal instability

  • UAV loss of control

With Integrated Encode / Decode (Anbefalede):

• Module handles:

  • SBUS decoding

  • Channel extraction

  • SBUS re-encoding

• Adds checksum mechanism (XOR)

• Ensures data integrity over:

  • Wireless links

  • Long-distance cables

  • Network transmission

• Greatly improves system safety

5. Ultimate Version

Adjustable Baud Rate + Adjustable Frame Rate + Integrated Encode/Decode

This is the most complete solution, combining:

• Protocol conversion

• Frame rate control

• Data integrity protection

• Minimal development effort

Ideel til:

• Professional UAV systems

• Industrial unmanned platforms

• Commercial long-range applications

---

Output Data Format (Decoded Version)

Standard SBUS (25 bytes)

• No checksum

• Bit-packed data

• Not human-readable

Our Decoded Output (35 bytes)

• Frame header

• 16 channels × 2 bytes (integer format)

• Flags byte

• XOR kontrolsum

Each channel value:

• Rækkevidde: 0–2047

• High byte first, low byte second

• Directly usable by MCU or PC software
