SCLT3-8BQ7-TR High speed digital input current limiter with digital filter

The SCLT3 series is an octal industrial digital input IC which drastically reduces the power dissipation of the digital input modules. Its current-sinking inputs can be configured for Type 1, Type 2, or Type 3 inputs as per IEC 61131-2 with few external components.

The SCLT3 series includes a serial interface which translates, conditions and serializes the data to CMOS-compatible signals through SPI. Combining its daisy-chaining capability with its accurate current limitation, the SCLT3 series enhances the I/O module’s density by cutting the power dissipation and reducing the number of optocouplers.

The SCLT3 series can be evaluated thanks to the STEVAL-IFP030V1 evaluation board. For detailed application guidelines refer to AN2846.
