The following are some basic facts about input loop power sources: The input module usually isn't a loop power source. Although 120V is common for digital loops, other voltages are also used. There ...

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 TIDA-00550, dual channel-to-channel isolated universal analog input module reference design for programmable logic controllers (PLC), combines precision and flexibility. This TI Design used in ...

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 ...
