WIXOM -- The Wixom manufacturing electronics manufacturer Acromag has released new BusWorks XT Series multi-channel optocouplers and interposing relay modules that connect discrete field devices to ...

These modules work with the company's BusWorks XT and other Ethernet discrete I/O modules. The XTA-MRNO-6 is an interposing relay module with six digital inputs and six mechanical relay outputs ...

Relays usually are driven using optocouplers, which offer isolation between analog and digital grounds to ensure that switching currents in the relay coils do not affect the noise margin of the ...

One of my favorite activities is discovering the inner secrets of electronics systems as I am always looking for interesting design ideas. That way, I can take those design tricks a step further, ...

Optocouplers provide high-voltage isolation between a low-voltage device like a microcontroller or a pulse-width modulation (PWM) generator and a high-voltage device like an intelligent or integrated ...

When we think of relays, we tend to think of those big mechanical things that make a satisfying ‘click’ when activated. As nice as they are for relay-based computers, there are times when you don’t ...
