• Read and write data
Isochronous Isochronous mode is also possible
mode for central for modules that are inserted next
I/O to the CPU in a centralized configu-
ration.
In this way, you can implement the
following functions, for example:
• Dynamic control tasks
• Measuring input
• Output cam
• Dosing processes, high-speed
analog value acquisition with
oversampling
