Table 11.1 shows the different types of I/O included with the two i ³C Lite models. Specifications and
wiring diagrams can be found on the data sheets. Descriptions and applications of the different type
of I/O can be found below.
11.3 Solid-State Digital Outputs
I³C Lite : Solid-state digital outputs are generally used to activate lamps, low voltage solenoids, relays,
and other low voltage and low current devices.
NOTE : The digital outputs used on the i ³C Lite are “sourcing” outputs. This m eans the output applies
a positive voltage to the output pin when turned ON. When turned off, the output applies
approximately zero volts with respect to the I/O ground.
The digital outputs used in the i ³C Lite have electronic short circuit protection and current limiting.
While these electronic protections work in most applications, some applications may require external
fusing on these outputs.
