Abstract :
As parts of the IEEE 1451 smart transducer interface standard are completed, or approaching completion, it is desirable to build and demonstrate hardware and software which implements the standard. The purpose of this paper is to demonstrate that, while a full implementation of the standard may be complex, a minimum and useful implementation is not. It includes an NCAP (network capable application processor) and TEDS reader and writer. Also included is an a/d which converts the analog signal into digital form and a compatible sensor bus
