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 ...

A key subsystem in a programmable logic controller is the analog input module, which provides a high-precision front end to measure a wide variety of sensors. In many cases, however, the amplifier ...

In the previous two issues of this newsletter, we looked at troubleshooting digital input modules. Basically, we looked for the presence or absence of a voltage. With analog modules, it's trickier ...

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 ...

The 8B50/51 analog voltage input modules have a filter bandwidth of 20 kHz, significantly larger than the 1 kHz bandwidth of earlier models. Accuracy is specified at ±0.10%, and linearity at ±0.05%.

The new TURCK 4AI4AO-VI analog I/O module offers compatibility with two of the company’s BL distributed I/O products: BL67 and BL Compact system. Featuring four analog inputs for current or voltage ...

Why battery-powered traction-motor battery packs need a high-voltage isolation amplifier. How this Texas Instruments iso amp meets stringent application requirements and standards. How an evaluation ...
