The open source BiSS interface (bidirectional/serial/synchronous) is based on a protocol which implements a real time interface. It enables a secure serial digital communication between controller, sensor and actuator. The BiSS protocol is designed in B mode and C mode (continuously bidirectional mode). It is used in industrial applications which require transfer rates, safety, flexibility and a minimized implementation effort. The BiSS interface has roots in SSI and a simplified INTERBUS. The proprietary standards, Hiperface and EnDat are competing solutions.

• Open source

• Hardware compatible for SSI standard (synchronous serial interface)

• Cyclic reading of sensor data up to 64 bit per slave

• Transmission of status data, parameter, measured temperature value, configuration description, etc.

• Isochronal, real time capable data transmission

• Bidirectional communication with two unidirectional lines

• Point-to-point or multi-slave networks

• Maximum user data rate, transmission data depending on driver and line of e.g. RS-422: 10 MHz, 1 km; LVDS: 100 Mbit/s

• Independent of the applied physical layer

• CRC secured communication (sensor data and control data secured separately)cite-ref-8[8]

• Continuous sensor data transmission without interruption while using control data

• Activation of actuators in bus during sensor data transmission

• Broader standardization through BiSS profiles, BiSS EDS (electronic data sheet), BiSS USER DATA, etc.

• Full compatibility of BiSS identifier (already defined in BiSS B)cite-ref-9[9]

• BiSS was showcased in 2002 by its founders iC-Haus GmbHcite-ref-10[10]

• Since BiSS B is not motor feedback compatible, BiSS C has been preferred in the market

• All patent cases against BiSS B were dropped in 2012:

• EP 0790489B1: "Mode switching by frequency comparison"

• DE 19701310B4: "Mode switching as such"

• EP 1168120B1: "Block transmission of additional uncritical data"

• Multi-cycle data (MCD) are no longer utilized in the position sensor system with BiSS

• Because BiSS utilizes the PHY of SSI [(RS-422)], it develops as the successor of the SSI interface in automation
