■ GENERAL Figure 1

This clock module generates

A-voltage and B-voltage clock
signals.

CL-530-A3
Clock Module (redundant use)

These system clock signals are required by most of the ProSafe-SLS (Solid-state Logic Solver) modules
and are distributed via an internal bus. The signals are trapezium shaped voltage pulses, inducing low
EMI noise.

The A-voltage and B-voltage signals are based on a stable crystal oscillator with additional circuitry,
producing an output signal with a repetition-time of 1 msec. The A-voltage and B-voltage signals are
extracted from the same oscillator. They have the same frequency and shape. The phase-relation
between the A-voltage and B-voltage signals is 180°.

The pulse frequency is monitored, and the A-voltage and B-voltage signals are switched off when the
pulse frequency speeds up more than 50%. The frequency monitoring circuit also drives a relay.

The module is suited for synchronization or redundancy with other CL-530 modules by means of the
synchronization input/output. In case of synchronization the module with the highest frequency rules the
bus and other modules are synchronized to that frequency.

The module is also equipped with 4 “logic one” current pulse outputs. These outputs can be used to
connect pulse logic inputs.

The module is provided with 6 red LEDs, indicating the A-voltage and B-voltage pulses and the 4 “logic
one” output signals, and 1 green LED, indicating the oscillator output.

The module is also equipped with an on/off switch for switching on and off the module. This must be used
for on-line replacement of the module in case of redundant use.
