This course introduces the programmable logic controller (PLC) and its associated applications. Topics include ladder logic diagrams, input/output modules, power supplies, surge protection, ...
A 230V AC Programmable Logic Controller (PLC) is an industrial computer designed for the automation of electromechanical processes. These processes can include control of machinery on factory assembly ...
Blurring that line slightly is gate array logic (GAL). These devices were a preceursor to the FPGA, with a much simpler structure, and usually in those days UV-erasable in the same manner as an EPROM.
This development represents a significant step forward in the quest to leverage light for more efficient and powerful computing solutions. More information: Wenkai Zhang et al, Large-scale optical ...
AC and DC controllers have demand for energy-efficient systems rising. Battery charging, electric propulsion, and electroplating are applications driving expansion.
Topics include language syntax, data types, program organization, problem solving methods, algorithm design, and logic control structures. Upon completion, students should be able to use top-down ...
