Analog Output Industry Pack Module IP231

The Acromag IP231 is an Analog Output Industry Pack Module with a 16 bit D/A Converter. It produces highly accurate analog voltage signals which drive 8 or 16 devices (depending on the model selected). However, when it is used with a carrier card that holds four IP modules, up to 64 voltage outputs can be achieved from a single card cage slot.

Firstly, each output channel has its own 16-bit D/A converter (Digital Analog Converter or DAC). Individual DACs are fast. They also eliminate glitches caused by re-acquisition process of sample and holds found on multiplexed output boards. The Individual channels also have double-buffered data latches. Update each output, when it is written to, or to update all outputs simultaneously. Simultaneous outputs better simulate linear movements in motion processes.

Features of the Analog Output Industry Pack Module 16 bit D/A IP231 include:

• 8 or 16 analog voltage output channels
• Independent 16-bit D/A converters per channel with an 13.0µS settling time
• Bipolar voltage (non-isolated) outputs: -10 to +10 volts
• Double-buffered DACs High load capability (5mA output current)
• Built-in calibration coefficients 0 to 70°C (IP231-8/16) or -40 to 85°C (IP231-8E/16E models)
• Outputs reset to 0 volts.
• Internally stored calibration coefficients ensure accuracy.
• Software provides easy selection of transparent or simultaneous output modes.
• Double-buffered DACs allow new data to be written to each channel before the simultaneous trigger updates the outputs.
