Speed of Digital Input switching

[JoshS]

I do not see a frequency rating for the input switching on the digital input modules.

I'd like to know that and the roadmap for a true high speed input module being released.

Thanks!

As mentioned in the documentation (see here) there is an input filter of 3ms. That means a signal needs to be applied for this time to get recognized.

The oversampling and timestamp IO moduls ar under preparation right now and should be available for prototype customers in march 2024.

IOs with 10µs input filter are also in preparation but for sure still linked to the EtherCat cycle time.

Thank you CodeShepherd. I knew the filter time was 3ms, but was not sure if there was a maximum frequency the card would work with.
