Impedance Matching and Termination Resistors

For RS-422/485 serial communications, when an electrical signal travels through two different resistance junctions in a transmission line, the impedance mismatch will sometimes cause signal reflection. Signal reflection causes signal distortion, which in turn will contribute communication errors. The solution to this problem is to establish the same impedance at the line ends as in the line itself by terminating them with resistors.

Industio CP-114 Series already installs the resistors on board for your convenience, indicated as follows. The value of the termination resistor should equal the characteristic impedance of the transmission line. Resistors should be added near the receiving side. Note: Stands for termination resistor near the receiving side.
