Available from Mouser, Maxim MAXREFDES150 Pocket IO PLC development platform is a reference design integrating a total of 30 IOs. This reference design consists of four analog inputs, one analog output, eight digital inputs, eight digital outputs and two RS485 (Profibus-capable field busses). The reference design also includes three encoder motor-control ports and four IO-Link masters.
This platform shows how analog integration can enable lower heat dissipation and faster throughput in a footprint that is less than ten cubic inches. Pocket IO connectivity is through USB or its own Wi-Fi network. The code can be developed to run on the Intel Edison using the popular and easy to use open-source Arduino software IDE.
