Deutschmann Automation and Innovasic Semiconductor are pleased to announce that Deutschmann has incorporated Innovasic’s RapID Platform and fido1100® Communications Controller into their UNIGATE® IC and UNIGATE® CL Profinet gateway products. The UNIGATE CL is a protocol converter solution for all field devices with serial interfaces. The UNIGATE IC is a protocol converter that supports integration directly into industrial automation equipment. Innovasic’s RapID Platform solution provides the communication processing in these gateway products. While evaluating Innovasic’s solution Deutschmann found that Innovasic’s 66 MHz fido1100 outperformed a 200 MHz RISC solution and provided higher reliability.
“We are pleased that Deutschmann has selected the fido1100 and our RapID Platform. Its unique architecture offers exceptional performance for Industrial Ethernet connectivity,” said Tom Weingartner, VP Marketing at Innovasic Semiconductor. “Now that these UNIGATE products are on the market, OEM customers have access to a greater range of high-performance fido-based solutions for implementing Profinet - from plug-in modules to chip-level solutions.” he concluded.

This is the second protocol we have implemented on the Innovasic platform and we are very pleased with the performance of the fido1100 and the RapID Platform, as well as with the outstanding support we have received from Innovasic,” said Gunther Lawaczeck, CTO and Managing Director of Deutschmann.
