12.2 External Wiring of Transistor Output (Sink/Source) Type
This section explains the procedures for handling transistor output and external wiring.
For the transistor output specifications, refer to the following.
→ For the specifications on the main unit, refer to Subsection 4.4.2.
→ For the specifications on the input/output powered extension unit, refer to Chapter 15.
→ For the specifications on the input/output extension block, refer to Chapter 16.
12.2.1 Transistor Output Sink and Source
FX3G Series main units, FX2N Series input/output extension units/blocks of transistor sink output type and of
transistor source output type are available.
1. Differences in circuit
• Sink output [-common]
Output to make load current flow into the output (Y) terminal is
called sink output.
• Source output [+common]
Output to make load current flow out of the output (Y) terminal is
called source output.
