Programmable logic controllers (PLCs) are an essential part of the automation sector, particularly factory automation. PLCs are classified as voltage and current inputs and convert real-world signals ...

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 ...

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 ...

Designed for engineers who need analog flexibility without the complexity of firmware or digital control, Chameleon™ modules can operate as fixed-function analog blocks straight out of the box — no ...

Designers of digital systems are familiar with implementing the 'leftovers' of their digital design by using FPGAs and CPLDs to glue together various processors, memories, and standard function ...

The MAQ20-BRDG1 strain gage module has four input channels and can interface to full, half, and quarter bridge sensors using four-wire or six-wire connections. All channels are individually ...

Making sound with digital logic usually calls for a Digital to Analog converter. Building one can be very simple, and the sound quality out of an R-2R Ladder is actually pretty good. In the last ...

Tailored for the TLA7012 portable and TLA7016 benchtop series logic analyzers, the 136-channel TLA7BC4 logic-analyzer module offers a 20-ps (50-Gsample/s) timing resolution and a record length up 128 ...

[Mike Bradley] wanted to use his oscilloscope to display 8 channels of digital signals. Alas, the analog unit didn’t have this capability. Not to worry, he threw together an adapter module that does ...

COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Okika Devices today announced the launch of its new Chameleon™ product family — a tiny yet powerful analog module that adapts to a wide range of analog design ...
