What is Foundation Fieldbus? | What Components Make a Complete Segment?

Fieldbus isn’t really one thing but more of a collection of things.
Fieldbus is a group of protocols that are used in the industrial arena.
The Fieldbus protocols have been standardized as IEC 61158.
Basically, Fieldbus works on a network that permits various topologies such as the ring, branch, star, and daisy chain.
Prior to Fieldbus, industrial controller systems were connected using RS232 serial communications. As you know, serial communications allowed only two devices to communicate.
Whereas today, the Fieldbus connections are more closely compared to the typical Ethernet connections where you can connect multiple field devices to a single connection point that would then connect to the controller.
However, Fieldbus is not a connection type, per se, but instead, a description used to indicate a group of protocols.
There are several protocols in the group such as ControlNet in the Allen Bradley family, Modbus, Profibus, EtherCAT, HART, CIP, and many more.
A primary benefit of Fieldbus is for field connected devices. For instance, consider you have several field devices that are quite a distance from your controller.
With Fieldbus devices such as sensors, motors, lamps, switches, these devices are connected to an “I/O data block”, which is then connected to a “field distribution device”, which is connected to a Fieldbus power supply, then finally connected back to the Programmable Logic controller.

Nice video...
Need video on PROFINET PROFIBUS...
AND ALSO Industrial CAN controller area network configuration

Sir please can draw a loop diagram (like you explain in video) for this video because animation is not looking clear.

Hello sir. Love your content
I'm and Instrumentation Engineer
And I have a question whole section of your plant is on Foundation Fielbus H1 or you have other Communication protocols as well like HART if so then how do u integrate them.

[@ElectricalAndautomation_guru]

In this plant we have modbus, fieldbus and profibus for I/O level integration and at the computer level communication we have ethernet.
All are a integrated with the help their dedicated Comnication module to communicate with the DCS.

[@ankithooda1536]

@@ElectricalAndautomation_guru What do u mean by Ethernet? Modbus TCP/IP or ProfiNet? Ethernet is only layer1-2 protcol, no? Gets confusing.
