I’ve now discussed the basics of the frequency folding tool from Analog Devices in two previous blog posts this year, Analog Devices Design Tools: ADISimADC Frequency Folding Tool and Analog Devices ...

Industrial control systems can be categorized in two types: open-loop and closed-loop systems. The open-loop control system is a continuous control system that provides no feedback from its output.

What kinds of things can you accomplish with a PC DAQ board? Fundamentally, you've got analog input and output, digital input and output, and counter/timer functions to choose from. So, there is a ...

New AC and DC discrete I/O modules include 8-point, 100-120 VAC input and output modules, 8- and 15-point, 3.3-24 VDC input and output modules and high-density, 32-point,12-24 VDC input modules. The I ...

An experienced circuit-design EE once clarified his view of the hierarchy of IC-vendor design support: High-performance, feature-rich ICs were good, application circuits were better, but complete ...

A programmable logic controller (PLC) is an industrial solid-state computer that monitors inputs and outputs, and makes logic-based decisions for automated processes or machines. 1. The image above is ...
