Page 17: Chapter 1 Flexible High-Speed I/O Control Module
FLEXIBLE HIGH-SPEED I/O CONTROL MODULE For the flexible high-speed I/O control module, users can easily create a high-speed, complicated hardware logic independent from the CPU module by graphically combining input/outputs, logical operation circuits, and counters with the configuration tool. Features Controls that have been performed using a microcomputer board or an FPGA board or combining several modules can be performed only with the flexible high-speed I/O control module.
Page 18 High-speed, stable I/O response Because the hardware logic inside the module performs controls without relying on the operation processing time and the bus transmission time of the CPU module, high-speed, stable I/O responses can be performed. As a result, variations of outputs to inputs can be reduced.
Page 19 Easy designing - select and connect User can easily create a hardware logic with intuitive actions of "selecting" and "connecting". Selecting Connecting Setting parameters Debugging 100ns 10us 100us Simulation function The operation of a created hardware logic can be checked using simulation data instead of external input signals. Execute the simulation Simulation data Check the result with GX LogViewer.
Page 20 Filter for eliminating noise A filter for reducing external noise has been implemented for external inputs. This filter eliminates chattering of input pulses. Delay adjustment of output timing The delay adjustment function has been implemented for external outputs. The delay adjustment function adjusts the output timing.
Page 21: Application Example
Application Example The flexible high-speed I/O control module realizes the following applications. Pulse measurement Pulses can be measured with a measurement resolution of 25ns. Pulse widths (ON width and OFF width) of pulse signals can be measured with a high degree of accuracy. This measurement can be applied to variable pulse measurement applications, such as the workpiece length measurement and control of transportation and machining speeds in each carrier device and machining equipment.
