Available now from Mouser stock, Maxim's MAXREFDES64 digital-input Micro PLC card features 8-channel digital inputs with isolated power and data. This reference design integrates a 600VRMS data isolator (MAX14850); a STMicroelectronics ARM Cortex-M microcontroller (STM32F103CBT6); a FTDI USB-UART bridge (FT234XD-R); a high-efficiency DC-DC converter (MAX17515); and isolated/regulated +24V and +5V power rails (MAX17498C). The entire system typically operates at less than 140mW and fits into a space around the size of a credit card. Typical applications include industrial control and automation, process control, and PLC.
