PLC (Programmable Logic Controller) is a programmable controller that refers to a new industrial control device based on computer technology. In the 1987 draft of the PLC standard issued by the International Electrotechnical Commission IEC (International Electrotechnical Commission), PLC is defined as: PLCs are electronic devices designed specifically for applications in industrial environments. Programmable memory can be used to store internal instructions for performing logical, sequential, timing, count, and arithmetic operations, and control various types of inputs via digital or analog inputs and outputs. Mechanical or production process. PLCs and related peripherals must be designed according to the principle that they are easy to form and expand in functionality in industrial control systems [2-3].<BR>Development history: Digital Equipment Corporation (DEC) in the United States developed the world's first programmable logic controller in 1969, and over 30 years of development and practice, its function and performance have improved significantly. From the original use of logic control to the field of motion control and process control. Programmable logic controllers are also called programmable controllers (PCs), and personal computers are also called PCs, so they are called PLCs to avoid confusion. In 1987, the third draft of the Programmable Controller Standard, promulgated by the International Electrotechnical Commission, defined programmable controllers as: Programmable controllers are electronic systems for digital operation operation designed for industrial environment applications. Controls various machines or manufacturing via digital and analog inputs / outputs using programmable memory used to store instructions for performing logical operations, sequence control, timing, counting, and arithmetic operations. I will. To process. Programmable controllers and their associated external equipment should be designed according to the principles of easy integration with industrial control systems and easy extension of their functionality [4].
