FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION
The CLTx-4 is a quadruple input digital termination device designed for 24 V DC automation applications. It achieves the front-end circuitry of a digital input module (I/O) in industrial automation, and drives an isolating opto-coupler.
FEATURES
■ 4 channels topology
■ Wide range input DC Voltage:
■ VI = - 0.3 to 30V with RI = 0
■ VI = - 30 to 35V with RI = 1.2kΩ
■ Low side configuration with common ground
■ Current limiter:
■ IGEN = 3mA
■ Input current limiter activation voltage < 5V
■ Temperature compensated operation
■ Opto-coupler drive:
■ No coupler activation below 1.5 mA input current
■ Input protection (RI = 1.2KΩ):
