Input voltage range is 20.4 to 28.8 V DC; output voltage matches. Input impedance sits at 6.4 kOhm, and input filtering is software-configurable up to 25 ms, which lets you match the filter time to your sensor response without additional hardware. ## Panel mounting Width is 12.5 mm (0.5 in), so the block fits tightly on a DIN rail. Power dissipation is 2.36 W. The 24 V DC input/output supply draws 80 mA typical; the 5 V DC bus draws 68 mA. Isolation between channels and bus is 500 Vrms AC. Operating environment: IP20, pollution degree 2, ambient temperature range unspecified in listed specs but shock (15 gn, 11 ms) and vibration (1 gn, 8.4–150 Hz on DIN rail) ratings give confidence for industrial cabinets.","metaTitle":"Schneider TM5C12D8T Modicon I/O Block, 12in/8out, 24V DC","metaDescription":"Schneider Modicon TM5 compact I/O expansion block with 12 digital inputs (sink) and 8 source outputs (0.5A).
