Programmable logic controllers (PLCs) monitor and control manufacturing and building automation processes in real time despite extreme temperatures, humidity, and vibration on the factory floor.
Vishay's bridge and standard rectifiers, switching MOSFETs, and ultrafast diodes support the AC / DC and DC / DC power stages that keep PLC processors running, while optocouplers and ESD protection diodes isolate and protect USB, Wi-Fi, and other communication interfaces. Our precision resistors and X and Y filter capacitors condition sensor inputs and suppress line noise. Inductors, TVS diodes, and power braking resistors support the half- and full-bridge output stages that drive connected motors and actuators.
Behind PLC systems is The DNA of tech.®
With over six decades of experience developing components designed to withstand high temperature and humidity conditions, Vishay's components are engineered to ensure exceptional reliability, featuring such qualifications as AEC-Q100, AEC-Q101, and AEC-Q200.
