7 Digital Output Units
7 - 18 NX-series Digital I/O Unit User’s Manual (W521)
This function is used to protect the output circuits of the Digital Output Units when an external connec-
tion load short-circuit occurs.
As shown in the figure below, normally when the output bit (OUT) turns ON, the transistor turns ON and
then output current (Iout) will flow.
The transistor of the Transistor Output Units generates heat when output current (Iout) flows.
If an overload or short-circuit occurs, causing the output current (lout) to exceed the maximum value of
load current as shown in the figure below and the junction temperature (Tj) of the transistor to reach the
thermal shutdown temperature (Tstd) in which a load short-circuit protection operates, the output will
turn OFF to protect the transistor from being damaged.
When the junction temperature (Tj) of the transistor drops down to the reset temperature (Tr), the out-
put OFF will be automatically reset and the output current will start flowing.
