Analogue modules for ASi bus systems
15 Jan 2000
IFM Electronic has introduced a range of high-speed, high-accuracy analogue modules for use with systems based on the ASi (actuator sensor interface) bus. Designed for in-panel mounting, the three modules cover standard analogue inputs and outputs, and inputs from Pt100 temperature sensors. The standard I/O modules operate with 0-10V, 0-20mA or 4-20mA signals, and offer 12-bit resolution. A to D conversion time is typically 30ms for inputs and 60ms for outputs, with a typical update on the temperature sensors of 70ms.
