Appl. No.:

11/084342

Inventors:

Charles J. Brower - Irvine CA, US
Curtis D. Brown - Dove Canyon CA, US

Lantronix, Inc. - Irvine CA

International Classification:

H01R 24/00

US Classification:

439676

Abstract:

A PCB mountable module includes logic circuitry that translates between serial and wireless communication protocols. Supported standards include I2C, CAN, ProfiBus, SPI, and USB, IP, ARP, UDP, TCP, ICMP, Telnet, TFTP, AutoIP, DHCP, HTTP, and SNMP. Modules can optionally provide security, MILARRS functionality, and web related services such as email alert. The novel modules can be used wherever a device designer wants a plug-in (or “drop-in”) system that obviates the need for independent development and maintenance of wireless capability. Examples include servers, desktop and laptop computers, and even devices such as kitchen appliances with relatively simpler electronics.

International Classification:

G11C 7/10

US Classification:

365189050

Abstract:

An add-on module provides publicasting functionality to legacy and other devices. Contemplated modules include: (a) a transformation agent that transforms device data to a desired publishable data format for insertion into a remote application, and (b) a consumer interface that publicasts the device data as publishable data to a remote device data consumer. Implementations are contemplated for both legacy devices that lack complete publicasting capability, and newly developed devices for which the developer desires a ready-made implementation of publicasting functionality.
