Rockwell Automation, Inc. provides industrial automation power, control, and information solutions.
1) The smallest distinguishable increment into which a quantity can be devised (e.g., position or shaft speed). 2) The degree to which nearly equal values of a quantity can be discriminated. 3) For rotary encoders, it is the number of unique electrically identified positions occurring in 360 degrees of input shaft rotation. 4) For D/A or A/D conversion, may be expressed as the number of bits in the digital value that corresponds to a full-scale analog value.
Industry:Automation
A sequence of instructions that monitors and controls a specific application function.
Industry:Automation
1) A device used only to send or receive data. 2) A peripheral device that can load, monitor, or dump memory data. This includes CRT devices and line printers.
Industry:Automation
A method used in an A/D converter to approximate the input voltage. Starting with the most-significant bit, the method is extended n times for an n-bit converter. If the approximation exceeds a reference, the result is a 0 for that bit; if smaller, the result is a 1.
Industry:Automation
Any incorrect function within electronic, electrical, or mechanical hardware. See fault
Industry:Automation
A family of digital and analog I/O modules used with AutoMate products and for remote I/O with the AutoMax products.
