Matching a sensor interface with a programmable logic converter or controller hardware that can accept only one type of input—npn or pnp—can be difficult. The last-stage modification circuit described ...
A comprehensive white paper covering the basics (and beyond) of signal conditioning is available from Moore Industries, a maker of interface instruments for industrial process control, system ...
If you ever wondered why your trailer Stop/Turn signal lamps are so dim you are not alone. The answer is simply that the typical Stop & Turn Signal Converter/adapter drops a whopping 2.5V! This is ...
A great many industrial sensors — flow, level, temperature, pressure, pH, and the list goes on — produce a 4-20 mA output, but today's factories increasingly need digital inputs via standard field ...
AutomationDirect has added two new frequency signal conditioners. The new SCU-2200 universal analog-to-frequency converters from ProSense accept milliamp, voltage, RTD, thermocouple or potentiometer ...
Many textbooks and technical articles explain how those voltage mode (VM) 1 and current mode (CM) 2 controls work. Not much information exists about HM control, however, even though many newly ...
