The Acromag IP330 is a 16-bit analog-to-digital input module engineered for high-resolution data acquisition in industrial control and monitoring systems. It delivers flexible channel configurations – 16 differential or 32 single-ended inputs – with programmable gain settings and multiple input voltage ranges. The module integrates with carrier boards to scale channel capacity and employs surface-mounted technology for dense signal conditioning in demanding environments.
