configuration of your PC – a total data throughput of up to
30 MS/s is realistic (see also table 6).
The programming of the various operating modes is described in
chapter 4.1 from page 28.
3.5.1 Opto-Isolated Inputs
The ME-5810 has 16 opto-isolated inputs (port A). In combination
with a plug-on board ME-5002, 16 further opto-isolated inputs
(port C) can be added.
The inputs have been designed for an input high-level U
in,H
=
3…60 V. A reference to the ground of the external circuitry via
GND_EXT (pins 9, 11, 59) has to be setup in any case. The input
lines show logic “0” if not connected.
The opto-isolated digital-inputs of the ME-5810 and ME-5002 are
protected from over-voltages with special Z-diodes, so called Tran-
sient Voltage Suppressor diodes (TVS diodes). These diodes can
discharge short voltage pulses with U
RWM
(Reverse Working Maxi-
mum) greater than 64.4 V to ground (max. 600 W pulse power at
a pulse width of 1 ms).
