The device documentation may contain particular specifications and timings, taking into account:
• Self-heating
• Rated voltage
• Insulating strength
• Edge steepness of the applied voltage or holding periods
• Normative environment (e.g. PELV)

Temporal aspects of analog/digital conversion
The conversion of the constant electrical input signal to a value-discrete digital and machine-readable form
takes place in the analog Beckhoff EL/KL/EP input modules with ADC (analog digital converter). Although
different ADC technologies are in use, from a user perspective they all have a common characteristic: after
the conversion a certain digital value is available in the controller for further processing. This digital value,
the so-called analog process data, has a fixed temporal relationship with the “original parameter”, i.e. the
electrical input value. Therefore, corresponding temporal characteristic data can be determined and specified
for Beckhoff analogue input devices.
This process involves several functional components, which act more or less strongly in every AI (analog
input) module:
• the electrical input circuit
• the analog/digital conversion
• the digital further processing
• the final provision of the process and diagnostic data for collection at the fieldbus (EtherCAT, K‑bus,
etc.)
