The Mitsubishi FX2N-16EYT is a 16-point transistor sink output extension block for the FX2N PLC series, giving you deterministic switching at 0.2 ms — fast enough to hold takt time on a high-speed weld line. Each point handles 0.5 A resistive load, but watch the common limits: 0.8 A per 4-point common, 1.6 A per 8-point common.
Key electrical interface details
Outputs are transistor sink type, driven by photocoupler isolation. ON voltage stays at 1.5 V or less; off-state leakage is 0.1 mA at DC 30 V. Response time is 0.2 ms or less for both on-to-off and off-to-on transitions at 200 mA, 24 VDC. That deterministic edge keeps cycle jitter off your takt-time budget. Power supply is drawn from the sequencer backplane (internal, no external supply needed for logic). External load supply can range from DC 5 V to 30 V. Withstand voltage between output terminals and earth is 500 VAC for 1 minute; insulation resistance is 5 MΩ or more at 500 VDC. Connection uses a vertical terminal block with M3 screws. LED indication on the panel lights when the photocoupler is driven — makes fault isolation at the cabinet door straightforward.
