The RPS10 converts RS422 signals from magnetostrictive linear displacement transducers (MDTs) into single-ended TTL/CMOS compatible signals. It can also be configured to convert a pulsewidth-modulated (PWM) signal into start and stop pulses for use with motion controllers and other products that accept only start-stop signals. Simply snap off the side panel of the RPS10’s DIN-rail enclosure to access the PWM jumper.
Features
- Get high MDT position resolution by using multiple recirculations within the transducer
- RS-422 differential transceiver for high noise immunity (220Ω input impedance)
- Converts PWM transducer outputs to start/stop signals for motion controllers (jumper selectable)
- Compact DIN-rail mount package
- Single +5VDC ±5% power supply
- Low current draw: 30mA typic
