With the guidance of members I am learning to build miniature circuits for my application.
Here I have an interesting application,
I am using analog modules in the PLC for acquiring analog signals.My analog input ranges from 0-10Volts or +/- 10 Volts.
My analog module costs around $700 or more for 4 channels.Kindly advice me whether my idea of using a circuit will replace the analog input module.
I have to design a circuit which receives 0-10 Volts input signal and convert it into frequency.By this I can connect the frequency output of the circuit to the high speed digital input of the PLC. PLC can respond upto 30KHz input pulses.I hope designing a circuit will not cost me more than $100.
While going through the forum search I found that members have specified XR4151. Will it be a precise one as I am replacing a analog input module.please suggest me will my idea of replacing analog module with the V-F work?
