▪Input circuit drawing is quite complex, in order to optionally support variety of analog
input sources. However, the default assembly (see black mark) is for standard
differential analog input, with a simple input circuit, having an input resistance of ~60K
ohms.
▪Input circuit bandwidth: 1KHz, -40 db/dec.
▪For dedicated (non-differential) analog input formats, as shown in the above table, or
for any other type, please consult designer for dedicated hardware variants of the
product.
▪The software provides parameters to control the analog input reading, as follows:
❖Filter.
❖Offset.
❖Dead band.
❖Gain

Electrical interfaces –Discrete, Isolated, inputs:
Figure 2 Isolated Inputs circuit diagram
▪The interface circuit is identical for inputs 1 to 4, which are organized as a single group.
▪Similarly, in port J4, inputs 5-8 are organized as a group with an identical interface
circuits, in port J5, inputs 9-12 are a third independent group, and in port J8, inputs 13-
16 are the forth independent group.
▪Each group is fully isolated and independent of the other groups.
▪Each group can be connected as NPN or PNP interfaces, depending on the wiring of the
group common pin. If the common pin is connected to power (5v to 28v), then the
inputs of this group can be used with external NPN devices (external current sinking
devices). If the common is connected to the GND of some external power, then the
inputs can be used with external PNP devices (external current sourcing devices).
▪Note that the input circuit of the opto couplers includes two diodes. This enables the
usage as NPN of PNP.
▪Clearly, one group can be wired to interface external NPN devices and another group
can be wired to interface PNP devices. However, within a group, all interfaces should
be the same, as they are based on the connection of the group common pin

Note: 5v supply limitation:
Note that the 5v supply that is provided both on pin 7 in Port J6 and Port J9 are internally limited
to 0.5A (both pins together). This is in order to protect the amplifier from short to GND.
Future firmware version of the amplifier will be able to detect and report this fault and to disable
the 5v supply until the fault is fixed. Currently, the current will be limited, but the detection of
this limit and the shutting off of the 5v supply is not supported yet.
Electrical interfaces –Discrete, Isolated, outputs:
Figure 12 Isolated Outputs circuit diagram
▪The interface circuit is identical for all outputs 1 to 4 in Port J6 and outputs 5-8 in Port
J8.
▪Each output can be programmed (by a software parameter) to act as a current sourcing
output (up to 300mA) or as a current sinking output (up to 500mA).
▪Common power is shared by all 4 outputs.
▪Common power can go up to 45 volts. Yet, typical usage should be limited by 36v.
