Product Description

In such a way that signals processing yields a high precision of performance, the development of the 8AC120.60-1 ACOPOS plug-in module was strategic to achieve. Therefore, due to its ability to support signal frequencies of 300 kHz at - 3 dB and 400 kHz at -5 dB, it allows for a more flexibility of use in many fast speed applications. Hence, the module can withstand the common-mode voltages levels of up to ~7 V and works with differential voltages levels that range from 0.5 V to 1.25 V. This fundamentally ensures a robust signal integrity.

Accompanied by a termination resistor of 120 ohm, this 8AC120.60-1 device containing such component must have a resolution that goes as high as 16384 times that of the encoder lines. The differential signal used in the reference input is such that is reasonably symmetric. The low differential voltages are fixed at -0.2 V and the high differential voltages are fixed at +0.2 V.

It can interface serially using RS485 protocol at a maximum baud rate of 625 kbaud; this gives a reliable and high speed data exchange capability. The device functions, selling up to a temperature tolerance of 55 degrees centigrade but is optimized for the environment temperature of 5-40 degrees centigrade. Ambient temperature ranges are set between -25 and 70 degrees Celsius, whereas relative humidity levels between 5 and 95% are acceptable. These attributes make the 8AC120.60-1 ACOPOS plug-in module an all-rounder in cases where exact signal processing and reliability under varying ambient conditions are required.

Internal Product Review

‘‘ACOPOS, an add-on device used in ACOPOS motor controls, has excellent characteristics for delicate signal treatment including accommodating frequency signals with gain of or less than -3dB at 300kHz and 400kHz at -5 dB which makes it able to work efficiently with high speed signals. The module also accepts common-mode voltages of ~7 V and a differential voltage range between 0.5- 1.25 V, thus eliminating crosstalk. The module can be connected at 16,384 times the encoder lines and at a termination of 120 Ohms accuracy and the voltage drop accuracy mentioned above would expect. ’’
