The SIG61 I/O pins are controlled remotely by 5 types of command messages: Read, Read-change, Write, Sleep and Change-Frequency. A Write command from a remote SIG60 Master device is reflected to the eight SIG61 output pins. A Read command from the Master device triggers the SIG61 to send the status of its eight input pins.
Few external components are needed for its operation allowing small footprint PCB. The SIG61 is an economical slave device for applications as controlling motors, reading sensors etc., eliminating the need for dedicated control wires and a host controller for its operation. It reduces the harness size and increase reliability.
A sleep mode enables power saving. Wake-up messages on DC line awaken remote devices.
The SIG61 is useful for a wide range of Automotive, Avionics and Industrial applications such as sensor readings, actuator activation, doors, seats, mirrors, climate control, lights, Truck-Trailer, etc.
