I/O modules are building blocks of industrial control systems used in end equipment such as PLC (Programmable Logic Controllers), PAC (Programmable Automation Controller) and DCS (Distributed Control ...

PLC evaluation board applications for industrial process-controlsystems are diverse, ranging from simple traffic control to complexelectrical power grids, from environmental control systems ...

In our previous two issues, we discussed troubleshooting digital output modules. Troubleshooting analog modules is a bit more complicated, for two reasons: Analog modules aren't on/off, as digital ...

It's time to get a little more specific with what the PLC CPU controls: PLC I/O! This article will discuss discrete I/O, analog I/O and briefly introduce industrial communications protocols. We talked ...

The TIDA-00401 TI Design is an isolated DC/DC turn-key solution. For a 10W isolated power supply with wide input voltage range, no opto-coupler feedback and low number of external components the ...

Does the module's output correspond correctly to its input? Determine that by forcing the PLC output to 10%, 25%, 50%, 75%, and 90% and measuring on the output terminals at the corresponding range ...

ACCES I/O Products, Inc. has released the mPCIe-DAAI16-8F, a multifunction analog input/output module for embedded and OEM systems. The unit fits the PCI Express Mini Card (mPCIe) Type F1 form factor ...
