General Electric’s (GE) Fanuc brand recently introduced the VMIVME-4140 module, a high-performance 32-channel, 12-bit analog output board that offers a new solution for industrial automation. With its high precision and high reliability, the module can meet all kinds of complex control requirements.
The VMIVME-4140 module offers 32 analog output channels, each equipped with A 12-bit D/A converter (DAC) capable of delivering a maximum output current of 10mA. This configuration ensures the accuracy and stability of the module when output signals. In addition, the module supports multiple output voltage ranges, including unipolar (0 to +10V, 0 to +5V, 0 to +2.5V) and bipolar (±2.5V, ±5V, ±10V), which provides users with flexible configuration options
.
The module is designed with the needs of industrial environments in mind, with an output impedance of 0.8Ω and the ability to update randomly (non-scanning), supporting dual buffered output for simultaneous software or external updates. This design makes the VMIVME-4140 ideal for use in data acquisition systems, control systems, precision simulated stimuli and automated test equipment (ATE).
The VMIVME-4140 also has an automatic calibration function that can be activated by a system reset or software command. During calibration, a bias and gain table coefficient is compiled and stored in RAM, ensuring the long-term stability and accuracy of the module. In addition, the module also supports offline testing functions, allowing users to conduct tests and diagnostics without connecting to external devices.
With the introduction of the VMIVME-4140 module, GE Fanuc’s product line in the field of industrial automation is further enriched. With its high performance, high reliability and powerful feature set, the module is expected to become an important component in the field of industrial automation control, helping enterprises achieve more efficient and smarter production processes.
