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 ...
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 ...
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 ...
The AutomationDirect Productivity2000 programmable logic controller (PLC) is a modular, rack-based system with a full lineup of discrete, analog, and specialty I/O modules providing over 400 local I/O ...
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 ...
Siemens is presenting LOGO! 9, the latest generation of its proven intelligent logic controller, at the Light + Building trade fair. The logic controller enables simple implementation of small ...
