Isolated Digital I/O Expansion via USB

The CONTEC DIO-0808LY2-USB is a compact USB digital I/O terminal designed to add isolated digital signal input and output capability to PC-based control, monitoring, automation, and test systems.

It provides 8 opto-coupler isolated digital inputs and 8 opto-coupler isolated open-collector outputs for 12 to 24 VDC signals. USB bus power eliminates the need for a separate power supply for the unit, while screw-terminal connections simplify integration with industrial equipment.
8 Inputs / 8 OutputsOpto-isolated digital I/O for industrial signal interfacing
12–24 VDCSupports common industrial digital signal voltage levels
300 μsMaximum input and output response time
USB Bus PoweredNo external power supply required for the unit
The DIO-0808LY2-USB is the successor to the DIO-0808LY-USB and adds interrupt control for all 8 input channels and a digital filter function while retaining the previous model's digital input/output specifications.

8-Channel Isolated Input

Provides 8 opto-coupler isolated digital input channels supporting current-sink output signals.

8-Channel Isolated Output

Provides 8 opto-coupler isolated open-collector outputs with current-sink configuration.

12–24 VDC Signal Support

Digital inputs and outputs support 12 to 24 VDC signals for industrial equipment interfacing.

USB Bus-Powered Operation

Supports USB 2.0 and USB 1.1 and operates from USB bus power without requiring an external power supply for the unit.

Interrupt Control

All 8 digital input channels support interrupt control for event-driven signal monitoring.
