Trusted TMR 120 Vdc Output Module – 32 Channel
Product Overview
The Trusted® TMR 120 Vdc Digital Output Module interfaces to 32 field devices. Triplicated
diagnostic tests are performed throughout the Module including measurements for current, and
voltage on each portion of the voted output channel. Tests are also performed for stuck on and
stuck off failures. Fault tolerance is achieved through a Triple Modular Redundant (TMR)
architecture within the Module for each of the 32 output channels.
Automatic line-monitoring of the field device is provided. This feature enables the Module to detect
both open and short circuit failures in field wiring and load devices.
The Module provides on-board Sequence of Events (SOE) reporting with a resolution of 1 ms. An
output change of state triggers an SOE entry. Output states are automatically determined by
voltage and current measurements on-board the Module.

Trusted TMR 120 Vdc Output Module – 32 Channel 1. Description
Rockwell Automation Publication ICSTT-RM281P-EN-P (PD-T8471) Issue 16 3
1. Description
The TMR 120 Vdc Digital Output Module is a member of the Trusted range of Input/Output
(I/O) Modules. All Trusted I/O Modules share common functionality and form. At the most
general level, all I/O Modules interface to the Inter-Module Bus (IMB) which provides power
and allows communication with the TMR Processor. In addition, all Modules have a field
interface that is used to connect to Module specific signals in the field. All Modules are
Triple Modular Redundant (TMR).
Figure 1 Module Architecture

1. Description Trusted TMR 120 Vdc Output Module – 32 Channel
4 Issue 16 Rockwell Automation Publication ICSTT-RM281P-EN-P (PD-T8471)
All High Integrity I/O Modules are made up of 4 sections: Host Interface Unit (HIU), the Field
Interface Unit (FIU), the Field Termination Unit (FTU), and the Front Panel Unit (or FPU).
Figure 2 shows a simplified block diagram of the Trusted 120 Vdc Digital Output Module.
Figure 2 Functional Block Diagram
1.1. Field Termination Unit (FTU)
The Field Termination Unit (FTU) is the section of the I/O Module that connects all three
FIUs to a single field interface. The FTU provides the Group Fail Safe Switches and passive
components necessary for signal conditioning, over-voltage protection, and EMI/RFI
filtering. When installed in a Trusted Controller or Expander Chassis, the FTU field connector
interconnects to the Field I/O Cable Assembly attached at the rear of the Chassis.
The SmartSlot link is passed from the HIU to the field connections via the FTU. These signals
go directly to the field connector and maintain isolation from the I/O signals on the FTU. The
SmartSlot link is the intelligent connection between Active and Standby Modules for
co-ordination during Module replacement.
1.2. Front Panel Unit (FPU)
The Front Panel Unit (FPU) contains the necessary connectors, switches, logic, and LED
indicators for the Front Panel. For every Module, the FPU contains the Slice Healthy,
Active/Standby, the Educated LED indicators, and the module removal switches. Additional
bi-colour LEDs provide status indication for the individual I/O signals. Serial data interfaces
connect the FPU to each of the HIU slices to control the LED status indicators and monitor
the module removal switches

Rockwell Automation Publication ICSTT-RM281P-EN-P (PD-T8471) Issue 16 5
1.3. Host Interface Unit (HIU)
The HIU is the point of access to the Inter-Module Bus (IMB) for the Module. It also provides
power distribution and local programmable processing power. The HIU is the only section of
the I/O Module to directly connect to the IMB Backplane. The HIU is common to most high
integrity I/O types and has type dependent and product range common functions. Each HIU
contains three independent slices, commonly referred to as A, B, and C.
All interconnections between the three slices incorporate isolation to help prevent any fault
interaction between the slices. Each slice is considered a Fault Containment Region (FCR), as
a fault on one slice has no effect on the operation of the other slices.
The HIU provides the following services common to the Modules in the family:
•High Speed Fault Tolerant Communications with the TMR Processor via the IMB
interface.
•FCR Interconnect Bus between slices to vote incoming IMB data and distribute
outgoing I/O Module data to IMB.
•Optically isolated serial data interface to the FIU slices.
•Redundant power sharing of dual 24 Vdc Chassis supply voltage and power
regulation for logic power to HIU circuitry.
•Magnetically isolated power to the FIU slices.
•Serial data interface to the FPU for Module status LEDs.
•SmartSlot link between Active and Standby Modules for co-ordination during
Module replacement.
•Digital Signal Processing to perform local data reduction and self-diagnostics.
•Local memory resources for storing Module operation, configuration, and field I/O
data.
•On-board housekeeping, which monitors reference voltages, current consumption
and board temperature.
1.4. Field Interface Unit (FIU)
The Field Interface Unit (FIU) is the section of the Module that contains the specific circuits
necessary to interface to the particular types of field I/O signals. Each Module has three
FIUs, one per slice. For the TMR 120 Vdc Digital Output Module, the FIU contains one stage
of the output switch structure for each of the 32 field outputs.

1. Description Trusted TMR 120 Vdc Output Module – 32 Channel
6 Issue 16 Rockwell Automation Publication ICSTT-RM281P-EN-P (PD-T8471)
The FIU receives isolated power from the HIU for logic. The FIU provides additional power
conditioning for the operational voltages required by the FIU circuitry. An isolated 6.25
Mbit/sec serial link connects each FIU to one of the HIU slices.
The FIU also measures a range of on-board “housekeeping” signals that assist in monitoring
the performance and operating conditions of the Module. These signals include power
supply voltages, current consumption, on-board reference voltages, board temperature, and
condensation.
1.5. Line Monitoring and Output States
The Module automatically monitors the output channel current and voltage to determine
the state of the output channel. The numerical output state and line fault status are
reported back to the application and are represented below.
Description Numerical
Output State
Line Fault
Status
Field Short Circuit 5 1
Output Energized (On) 4 0
No Load, Field Open Circuit 3 1
Output De-energized (Off) 2 0
No Field Supply Voltage 1 1
Table 1 Line Module Fault Status
All channels need a 330 KΩ resistor in parallel with the load to enable the Module to
distinguish between an open circuit load and a stuck-on-fault.
IMPORTANT Line monitoring may not work properly for
field supply voltages of less than 35 Vdc.
Faults in the field wiring (open or short circuits) may not be detected.
1.6. Housekeeping
The Output Module automatically performs local measurements of several on-board signals
that can be used for detailed troubleshooting and verification of Module operating
characteristics. Measurements are made within each slice’s HIU and FIU.

Trusted TMR 120 Vdc Output Module – 32 Channel 1. Description
Rockwell Automation Publication ICSTT-RM281P-EN-P (PD-T8471) Issue 16 7
1.7. Fault Detection/Testing
Extensive diagnostics provide the automatic detection of Module faults. The TMR
architecture of the Output Module and the diagnostics performed verify the validity of all
critical circuits. Using the TMR architecture provides a Fault Tolerant method to withstand
the first fault occurrence on the Module and continue normal output controls without
interruption in the system or process. Faults are reported to the user through the Healthy
status indicators on the Front Panel of the Module and through the information reported to
the TMR Processor. Under normal operations all three Healthy indicators are green. When a
fault occurs, one of the Healthy indicators will be flashing red. It is recommended that this
condition is investigated and if the cause is within the Module, it should be replaced.
Module replacement activities depend on the type of spare Module configuration chosen
when the system was configured and installed. The Module may be configured with a
dedicated Companion Slot (SmartSlot operation is not available).
From the IMB to the field connector, the I/O Module contains extensive fault detection and
integrity testing. As an output device, most testing is performed in a non-interfering mode.
Data input from the IMB is stored in redundant error-correcting RAM on each slice portion
of the HIU. Received data is voted on by each slice. All data transmissions include a
confirmation response from the receiver.
Periodically, the TMR Processor commands the on-board Digital Signal Processors (DSPs) to
perform a Safety Layer Test (SLT). The SLT results in the DSP verifying with the TMR
Processor its ability to process data with integrity. In addition, the DSP uses Cyclical
Redundancy Checks (CRC) to verify the variables and configuration stored in Flash memory.
Between the HIU and FIU are a series of optically isolated links for data and power. The data
link is synchronized and monitored for variance. Both FIU and HIU have on-board
temperature sensors to characterize temperature-related problems. Each FIU is also fitted
with a condensation sensor.
The power supplies for both the HIU and FIU boards are redundant, fully instrumented and
testable. Together these assemblies form a Power Integrity Sub-system.
1.8. Sequence of Events Characteristics
The Module automatically measures the field voltage and current to determine the state of
each output channel. An event occurs when the output transitions from one state to
another. When a channel changes state, the on-board timer value is recorded. When the
TMR Processor next reads data from the Output Module, the channel state and real-time
clock value are retrieved. The TMR Processor uses this data to log the state change into the
system Sequence of Events (SOE) log. The user may configure each output to be included in
the system SOE log. Full details of SOE are contained in Trusted Sequence OE of Events and
Process Historian Package, publication ICSTT-RM243 (PD-T8013).

8 Issue 16 Rockwell Automation Publication ICSTT-RM281P-EN-P (PD-T8471)
1.9. Output Switch Structure
The Digital Output Module provides a TMR switch topology where the load is driven by a
total of three fully monitored, fail safe (6 element) switch channels, one physically resident
on each OFIU in the Module. Any single switch or entire slice failure is designed to leave two
of the three fail safe switch channels operational to power the load.
Figure 3 Output Switch Structure
The upper switches shown in Figure 3 are denoted as N.O. (Normally Open), and are
controlled by the FIU on which they are physically resident.1The lower switches are
depicted as N.C. (Normally Closed), and are controlled by the “upstream” neighbouring FIU.2
Note: In this context, N.O. is defined as being in the off state in the absence of control signal power, and
similarly, N.C. is the on state in the absence of control signal power. These switches are constructed from
enhancement mode MOSFETs and are both guaranteed to be off in the absence of Module power to create
gate voltage signals to bias them on3(unlike electromechanical relays for example).
The reason that the lower switches are specified to be on in the absence of control signal
power is to allow two channels to power the load should an entire slice fail. Even if an entire
slice fails, the surviving output circuits will carry the necessary control.
The structure of each FIU output is shown below:
1Their “home” FIU.
2The home FIU, supplies an independent control signal for the “downstream” FIU FSS.
3For an un-faulted transistor.

Trusted TMR 120 Vdc Output Module – 32 Channel 1. Description
Rockwell Automation Publication ICSTT-RM281P-EN-P (PD-T8471) Issue 16 9
Figure 4 Simplified Switch Circuit Diagram
A resistor provides a means of continuously monitoring the switch current. A signal
transistor is used to drive the gate of Switch 2. It provides Switch 2 with a negative gate
voltage, to minimize its on resistance, and serves to hold Switch 2 on in the event that the
secondary gate control loses power.
The Zener diode between the gate of Switch 2 and source is only required to protect the
gate from large voltage spikes on the drain that might capacitively couple through when
Switch 1 and Switch 2 are in the off state.
The resistors in series with the gate of Switch 1 and the signal transistor serve to protect the
drive logic in the event of a malicious switch failure. The pull-up resistors define the gate
voltages in the absence of power.
1.9.1. Switch Diagnostics
During normal operation, Switch 1 and Switch 2 are maintained on. In this state, Switch 1
and Switch 2 exhibit a low resistance.
To determine the ability of the system to control the load via Switch 1 and Switch 2, their
gate voltages are modulated, one at a time. As the gate voltages are modulated, the
monitoring signals synchronously change in a predictable fashion. The local DSP analyses the
relative amplitude and phase of these small AC signals, to determine the on resistance and
threshold voltages of each switch.
The current to the load does not need to be completely interrupted in order to obtain a
level of confidence in the ability of the transistors to turn off. For the TMR switch
configuration in the on state, only one fail safe switch at a time needs to be modulated,
while the other two bear the load current.

10 Issue 16 Rockwell Automation Publication ICSTT-RM281P-EN-P (PD-T8471)
1.9.2. Short Circuit Protection Issues
In a fuse-free design such as in the Trusted System, the Module is required to respond
rapidly in the event of an over-current or over-power situation. In fact, this protection
scheme offers advantages to fuses in both automatic recovery and speed of action.
The topology of the channel provides a natural limit to the instantaneous current flow,
giving the Module time to respond. Furthermore, the over-current protection circuitry is
inherently self-testable, since the threshold can be a programmable value.
The P-channel architecture of Switch 1 and Switch 2 utilizes an open-drain output structure.
Under short-circuit conditions the maximum instantaneous current with a 120 V field
voltage is naturally limited to less than 5 A per channel. This is because high output currents
cause the gate-source voltages of the two transistors to be reduced, tending to turn them
off.
The output current is monitored by the DSP and sustained over current conditions result in a
latched over-current condition and de-energize the associated output. After removing the
fault condition, the latched over-current condition can be reset by either pressing the
system Fault Reset button or turning off the logical output signal to the Module. The output
also includes a non-replaceable fusible link for absolute protection.
1.9.3. Group Fail Safe Switches
To support safe operation, the Output Module is equipped with a series of switches that
provide source power to a group of 8 output channels. The Output Module Group Fail Safe
Switch (GFSS) is intended as a final control switch which can de-energize any outputs that
cannot be de-energized in the normal way. For safety, the presence of two or more faults
within the Output Module will cause the Group Fail Safe Switches to de-energize, resulting
in all of the outputs in its group to de-energize.
There are three switches in parallel, which comprise the GFSS, one associated with each
'slice' of the power group. The GFSS’ are controlled via a signal from one of the other two
neighbouring slices. This means that if one slice determines from the output states that an
output is not in a de-energized state when it should be, then it can command its own GFSS
and those of the other slices GFSS to de-energize. This results in two of the three elements
of the GFSS structure to de-energize, leaving only one GFSS element energized. If two slices
do the same thing then the last GFSS output will de-energize. For example, this would occur
if two or more output switch elements fail in a 'stuck-on' state such that the output cannot
de-energize.
The GFSS control signal is generated by a charge pump driven from the comms clock to the
slice power group. If the clock fails then the GFSS bias collapses. This means that even if the
ability of the slice to communicate with a power group is lost, the GFSS can still be
de-energized by stopping the comms clock. If a slice fails, the watchdog on the HIU will time
out and reset the slice, this will shutdown the FIU power supply and the associated GFSS
control signal will also de-energize.

Rockwell Automation Publication ICSTT-RM281P-EN-P (PD-T8471) Issue 16 11
2. Installation
2.1. Module Insertion and Removal
CAUTION:
The Module contains static sensitive parts. Static handling precautions must be
observed. Specifically ensure that exposed connector pins are not touched. Under no
circumstances should the Module housing be removed.
Before installation, visually inspect the module for damage. Ensure that the module housing
appears undamaged and inspect the I/O connector at the back of the module for bent pins.
If the module appears damaged or any pins are bent, do not install the module. Do not try
to straighten bent pins. Return the module for replacement.
Ensure that the module is of the correct type.
Record the module type, revision and serial number of the module before installation.
To install the module:
1. Ensure that the field cable assembly is installed and correctly located.
2. If I/O module keys are used, verify that all keys are installed in the correct positions
and properly seated in their slots.
3. Release the ejector tabs on the module using the release key. Ensure that the ejector
tabs are fully open.
4. Holding the ejectors, carefully insert the module into the intended slot.
5. Push the module fully home by pressing on the top and bottom of the module fascia.
6. Close the module ejectors, ensuring that they click into their locked position.
The module should mount into the chassis with a minimum of resistance. If the module does
not mount easily, do not force it. Remove the module and check it for bent or damaged
pins. If the pins have not been damaged, try reinstalling the module.
2.2. Cable Selection
The I/O cable suitable for use with the Trusted TMR 120 Vdc Digital Input Module is detailed

The Product Description also details the types of Field Termination Assembly (FTA) or
Versatile Field termination Assembly (VFTA) which may be used with this type of Module.
Custom length multi-core FTA cables are 0.5 mm2with a resistance of 40 Ω/km. eg a 50 m
cable will have 4 Ω loop impedance at 0.5 A, this equates to a 2 Vdc volt drop.
2.3. Termination
All channels should be terminated with a parallel 330K 0.25 W resistor on the FTA field
terminals to allow no-load detection on de-energized channels. Unused channels may be
fitted with 33K 1 W resistors to help prevent no-load detection.
