BB3 Mixed I/O modules
MIO168 Mixed I/O Module
The MIO168 is a versatile module that offers multi-channel generation and measurement of digital and analog signals. In the basic version it offers 8 digital 2-level inputs and 8 low-side high current switches. It additionally offers two bipolar voltage or current analog sources and two unipolar voltage sources and two square wave generators.
Four analog inputs can be obtained by adding one of the AFE modules (see below) depending on the application.
The module has 8- and 16-pin 3.81 mm connectors on the front panel thanks to which it is possible to quickly and easily connect the wires without the need for an additional breakout box. 2-, 4- or 8-way pluggable female terminal connector blocks in low-profile push-in and screw-fasten variants can be used to connect the wires.
Current version: r2B5
Status: Active
Planned availability: Q3/2021
MIO168 AFE1
AFE1 has two hi-voltage (up to ±240 V) and two hi-current protected (up to ±10 A) analog inputs. It uses a high-resolution ADC with simultaneous sampling that allows more accurate power recording using two inputs and efficiency when all four inputs are used.
The module has 8-pin 3.81 mm connector accessible via the MIO module front panel thanks to which it is possible to quickly and easily connect the wires without the need for an additional breakout box. 2-, 4- or 8-way pluggable female terminal connector blocks in low-profile push-in and screw-fasten variants can be used to connect the wires.
Current version: r1B3
Status: On hold
MIO168 AFE2
AFE2 is intended for measuring the consumption and efficiency of IoT sensors and similar MCUs controlled by battery-powered devices where there is a large difference in consumption between sleep, standby and active mode. It is equipped with very fast 2-range current switches and a 6-channel high-resolution ADC for simultaneous recording of two voltage signals and two current in both Low (±2 mA) and High (±2 A) ranges.
The module has 8-pin 3.81 mm connector accessible via the MIO module front panel thanks to which it is possible to quickly and easily connect the wires without the need for an additional breakout box. 2-, 4- or 8-way pluggable female terminal connector blocks in low-profile push-in and screw-fasten variants can be used to connect the wires.
Current version: r1B2
Status: On hold
MIO168 AFE3
AFE3 has two protected inputs for fully isolated voltage (up to ±480 V) and current (up to ±10 A) measurement which in combination with an additional two inputs can be used to safely measure the power and efficiency of the device on the primary and secondary side (e.g. AC/DC or isolated DC/DC converters). It uses a high-resolution ADC with simultaneous sampling that allows more accurate power recording using two inputs and efficiency when all four inputs are used.
The module has 8-pin 3.81 mm connector accessible via the MIO module front panel thanks to which it is possible to quickly and easily connect the wires without the need for an additional breakout box. 2-, 4- or 8-way pluggable female terminal connector blocks in low-profile push-in and screw-fasten variants can be used to connect the wires.
Current version: r1B4
