3. Product Features
Fiber Optic Isolation Technology: Equipped with onboard fiber optic interfaces to establish voltage isolation between the EAUX board and EDFF board, delivering excellent high noise immunity for stable signal transmission in complex industrial environments.
Multiple Configuration Options: The EDFF board is available in three configurations including H1, H2 and H3. Among them, the H1 configuration is specially designed and dedicated for Triple Modular Redundancy (TMR) systems.
Dual-Channel Conversion Design: Integrated with two independent V-F conversion circuits. One circuit is responsible for field voltage feedback, and the other serves for field current feedback, realizing synchronous and accurate collection of dual electrical parameters.
High Operational Reliability: Adopts high-quality electronic components and optimized advanced circuit architecture. It features strong environmental adaptability and can operate stably in harsh industrial working conditions.
Convenient Maintenance: Supports remote system monitoring and online debugging functions, which effectively reduces on-site maintenance frequency and overall operation and maintenance costs.
4. Structure and Composition
Core Circuit: The core functional unit of the board consists of high-precision V-F (Voltage-to-Frequency) converter circuits, which undertake the core signal conversion work.
Connectors: Mounted on the front panel of the circuit board, used for receiving external electrical signals and transmitting converted frequency signals stably.
Interface Components: Includes two groups of optical receiving sockets (4 sockets per group) and a complete fiber optic assembly composed of one optical receiver and one optical transmitter.
Reset Switch: Concealed behind a reserved hole at the lower part of the front panel to avoid accidental touch and ensure safe operation.
Power Interface: Designed to receive +24V DC power supply and 24V DC return voltage from the backplane to ensure stable power supply for the whole board.
5. Application Fields
