PLC Handwritten Notes Overview

A programmable logic controller (PLC) is a micro-processor-based device that uses programmable memory to control machines and processes through various functions like logic and timing. The document explains the concepts of sourcing and sinking in relation to current flow, as well as key PLC instructions such as Examine if Closed (XIC) and Examine if Open (XIO). Additionally, it includes diagrams and examples of input and output configurations for PLCs.

Programmable

Logic Control
A programmable logic
controller (PLC) is a special
form of micro-processor-
based controller that uses a
programmable memory to
store instructions and to
implement functions such as
logic, sequencing, timing,
counting and arithmetic in
order to control machines
and processes
Programmable Logic Controller
Sourcing and Sinking
Sourcing
• using the conventional current flow direction as from positive to
negative, an input device receives current from the input module

• If the current flows from the output module to an output load


Sourcing and Sinking
Sinking
• using the conventional current flow direction as from positive to
negative, an input device supplies current to the input module
• If the current flows to the output module from an output load
