16 opto‑isolated inputs (current sink compatible) and 16 opto‑isolated open‑collector outputs (current sink type) in a compact USB unit. 5‑50 VDC operation, 200 µs response. Internal power for inputs — no external supply needed for input section. Outputs support 100 mA per channel with surge and overcurrent protection.
The DIO‑1616HN‑USB provides 16 opto‑isolated inputs (current sink compatible) and 16 opto‑isolated open‑collector outputs (current sink type) in a compact USB 2.0 unit. Inputs are internally powered (5 VDC) — no external supply needed for input section. Outputs require an external 5‑50 VDC supply and support 100 mA per channel.
Internal power for inputs — no external power supply needed for the input section. Outputs require external 5‑50 VDC supply. Common terminals: inputs share 1 common; outputs share 1 common per 8 channels.
