03 | Keysight | U2600A Series USB Modular Isolated Digital I/O Devices - Data Sheet
High channel count with opto-isolated digital input and digital output
The U2600A Series has high channel count of up to 64-bit high-density opto-isolated digital
input and digital output that enhances its usability and reliability. With just one DIO device,
you are able to drive more actuators and control more sensors. The U2600A Series’ opto-
isolated design also separates the electrical connection between circuits for better PC system
protection.
High isolated transient voltage protection
Isolation prevents any potential harmful current that may be induced by transient voltage
spikes from flowing through the digital IO lines to the system. The robust 1250 Vpeak transient
isolation protection makes it safe for direct connection to a wide range of industrial sensors and
actuators, making the U2600A suitable for most industrial applications.
High I/O voltage range
The U2600A Series has a high input/output voltage range suitable for demanding industrial
applications such as driving relays and actuators, which require up to 24 V. Equipped with a
wide input range of 10 to 24 V to sense the status of external sensors, it also has an external
supply voltage ranging from 5 to 35 V, which enables the U2600A Series to drive a wide range
of actuators.
Interrupt function
The U2600A Series has an interrupt function that automatically triggers your system when a
digital change of state occurs. Unlike polling, this function minimizes the overheads of your PC
system especially when the U2600A Series is used in multitasking applications.
Virtual Port grouping function
The Virtual Port grouping function allows users to randomly select any eight input or output
bits and group them into one channel as a virtual DIO port.
The following describes the key advantages of using the Virtual Port grouping function:
– You can control multiple bits simultaneously for the instantaneous control of multiple
machines, such as emergency stop control.
– You can make changes to your port assignments whenever required as the Virtual Port is
easily programmable.
– It eliminates the need for you to rewire your hardware devices
