Introduction
Digital I/O Module with galvanic isolation DIC324 is implemented in PC/104+ standard on
the basis of the stack of DIC122 and DIC123 modules. It has 16 channels of isolated digital input
channels and 8 channels of isolated digital output. Electrical parameters of the modules are
identical to those of the DIC122 and DIC123 modules. The modules use the Field-Programmable
Gate Array (FPGA), which makes it possible to change algorithm of processing inputs and outputs
without changing the topology.
All the channels are isolated fro the system and from each other.
The channels use either two-wire or single-wire (with common ground) connection. It is
possible to connect signals of the "potential-free" contact type with the use of an external (up to 52
V) power supply source.
Load connection: two-wire/single-wire
