In our previous issue, we said a digital output module could be tested by using the PLC logic to force the output on and off then and observing the module’s response. If the module doesn't respond, ...

The TIDA-00400 isolated power supply reference design provides multiple isolated outputs to supply the bias voltage needed in a Programmable Logic Controller (PLC) IO module. It generates 3 isolated ...

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 Logic is a compact microcontroller that plugs a small housed logic module, programmable with LOGIC software, directly into relays, allowing users to switch and control up to 48 I/O signals with a ...

Acromag has released a series of FPGA modules based on AMD Zynq UltraScale+™ MPSoC devices for embedded I/O processing and logic functions in industrial and real-time systems. These modules combine a ...

In previous issues, we have discussed troubleshooting input modules. In the examples, the output modules checked out OK. But what if they don't? As with input modules, output modules can be digital or ...
