Programmable Logic Controllers (PLCs) and microcontrollers (MCUs) are becoming ubiquitous in the automation of a wide range of industrial and consumer applications. The PLC Laboratory houses six state ...

It should be no surprise to many that one can use a Raspbery Pi SBC as an industrial controller, but is it any good at that? That was the question which [Dough Reneker] and [William Shaffer] built a ...

Programmable Logic Controllers (PLCs) are the backbone of modern industrial automation, orchestrating critical operations across diverse sectors. As these controllers become increasingly complex, ...

Engineers and developers looking for a programmable logic controller (PLC) might be worth checking out the new CANADUINO Arduino MEGA 2560 compatible PLC which has been created by Universe Solder ...

How PLCs enable automated systems to be altered via software rather than hardware changes. Why PACs are often used when integrating capabilities such as safety, motion, distributed I/O, and network ...

System integrators share their tips on the differences between PLCs, PACs, and Industrial PCs, including their best use cases and how to choose the right one for your environment. Allen-Bradley ...
