Discrete I/O Modules
The I/O modules receive their module voltage and
current from the power supply module through the
backplane of the rack enclosure into which they are
inserted. Power from this supply is used to power the
electronics, that reside on the I/O board. The relatively
higher currents required by the loads of an output
module are supplied by user-supplied power.
AC Discrete Input Module
The input circuit is composed of two basic sections:
the power section and the logic section.

Sinking and Sourcing DC References
The design of DC field devices typically require that
they be used in a specific sinking or sourcing circuit,
depending on the internal circuitry of the device.
