The Electrician's Handbook: A Comprehensive Guide to PLCs, Sensors, Encoders, Inverters, and Relay Wiring

On the grand stage of modern industrial production, various automation devices resemble precision instruments, collectively playing a symphony of efficiency, accuracy, and safety. Core devices such as PLCs, sensors, encoders, inverters, and relays not only perform unique roles but also collaborate closely to ensure the smooth operation of the entire production process. Next, let us … Read more

Can a PLC Bypass Relays to Directly Control Contactors?

by
Can a PLC Bypass Relays to Directly Control Contactors?

This depends on the specific model of the PLC. PLCs can be categorized into relay output, transistor output, and thyristor output. Relay-type PLCs can directly control contactors, while transistor and thyristor-type PLCs cannot directly control contactors. The maximum output current of relay-type PLCs is 2A, which can drive AC and DC loads. The allowable load … Read more

Unveiling the Core Mechanism of RS-485 Communication: The Key Role and Implementation Principle of 120Ω Termination Resistors

Common “Difficulties” in the Field One of the most troublesome issues during device debugging: RS-485 communication is unstable, with intermittent data transmission. The program logic is fine, the cable connections are correct, and there are no address conflicts, yet communication timeouts, data corruption, and sporadic failures still occur. Changing cables, adjusting baud rates, and checking … Read more

Analysis of the Impact of Back Power Distribution Network (BSPDN) on Power/Performance/Area/Temperature (PPAT)

This literature is from IMEC, published in 2022, focusing on the impact of BSPDN on the study of PPAT.The front end (FEOL) is an active driver of chip power/performance/area (PPA). As scaling approaches the physical limits of semiconductor devices, the back end (BEOL)/middle end (MEOL)/packaging becomes increasingly important for PPA improvements in chips/systems. At 2nm … Read more
