Hi,
I am wondering what is to be gained in having an isolated 24vols to 5volts power supply to power the microcontroller in a PLC. Utilizing an isolated power supply forces all IO to use isolation to communicate with the microcontroller. Not using an isolated power supply to the microcontroller could save a lot of glue logic.
Any comments that might help me steer in the right direction.
Regards,
Alfredo
