Industrial Automation/Programmable Logic Controller
Industrial automation applications involve monitoring temperature, strain, voltage, current, distance, pressure and flow and the equipment responsible for each process. These harsh environments contain varying ground potentials, hazardous voltages and electrical noise. Silicon Labs’ multi-channel digital isolators provide high voltage isolation in a small form factor for high-channel count applications enabling precise measurement and control even in the most harsh operating environments. Touch sense MCUs provide control over the user interface while ambient light sensor ICs provide motion and object detection.
