    4. Function Digital Filter Function Using this feature, the DIO-1616H-PE, DIO-3232H-PE can apply a digital filter to every input pin, thereby preventing wrong recognition of input signals from being affected by noise or chattering. Digital Filter Function Principle The digital filter checks the input signal level during the sampling time of the clock signal. When the signal level remains the same for the digital filter set time, the digital filter recognizes that signal as the input signal and changes the signal level of the PC.
