Analog-Signal in Industrial Automation


Posted on Jun 18, 2012

Industrial control systems continue to employ standard analog signals for transmitting data between the process and the control equipment. Robust, 4-to-20mA current-loop signals that are easily transmitted over several thousand feet, ±5 and ±10V signals are also very common in industrial systems. This application note showcases Maxim`s integrated Data Acquisition System (DAS) solutions. Maxim`s DAS solutions save board space, power, and design time, while requiring minimal external components to convert standard industrial analog signals.



Speed and position sensors for machine tools and automatic handlers in factory-automation environments generate unipolar and bipolar voltage signals, which are typically 0V to 5V, 0V to 10V, ±5V, or ±10V. In addition, signals from the popular PT100
