Control and Automation Solutions - PLCs

Analog Devices Inc. PLC Control and Automation Solutions provide the ability to integrate the right features into ICs, enabling PLC (Programmable Logic Controller) designers to reduce system cost, power demands, and overall footprint while providing the accuracy and reliability needed for industrial measurements.

Industrial 4.0 Smart Factory Solutions

Analog Devices Industrial 4.0 Smart Factory Solutions is a concept that envisions factories of tomorrow as vastly more integrated, automated, and flexible. Using these solutions, factories can become faster and more efficient in churning out goods desired by the changing marketplace. Factory automation is concerned with the automatic control of process machinery. A process controller monitors and measures operational and environmental variables. The controller then sends actuation commands out to control devices or alarms. The controllers are usually microcontroller-based machines with an architecture optimized to meet the needs of the factory and application.

MAX31911 Interface Translator/Serializers

Analog Devices Inc. MAX31911 Interface Translator/Serializers are an industrial interface serializer that translates, conditions, and serializes the 24V digital output of sensors and switches. These devices are used in industrial, process, and building automation to 5V CMOS-compatible signals required by microcontrollers. These provide the front-end interface circuit of a programmable logic controller (PLC) digital input module. The ADI MAX31911 features integrated current limiting, low-pass filtering, and channel serialization. Input current limiting allows a significant reduction in power consumed from the field voltage supply as compared to traditional discrete resistor-divider implementations. The device serializer is stackable so that any number of input channels can be serialized and output through only one SPI-compatible port. This feature reduces the number of optocouplers needed to only three, regardless of the number of input channels.
