Data
Word Structure
Each STB ACI 1225 data register represents the input voltage of a channel in the
IEC data format. The data has 10-bit resolution. The bit structure in each data
register is as follows:
There are 10 significant bits in each data word—bits 14 through 5. They allow you
to represent current data with integer values ranging from 0 to 32,736 in increments
of 32. A value 32 000 represents an input of 20 mA. A value of 0 represents an input
less than or equal to 4 mA.
Linear current representations can be interpreted using the formula:
where Cn is the numerical count and Iai is the analog input current.
Values greater than 32 000 do not produce over-range indications.
