Innodisk Unveils USB to 32bit Digital I/O Module for Industrial Applications
Taipei, Thursday, 6 February 2025.
Innodisk introduces the EMUI-0D01, a compact digital I/O module enabling USB connection to 32bit interfaces, enhancing communication capabilities for European industrial systems through robust digital integration.
Technical Specifications and Capabilities
The EMUI-0D01 features 32-bit digital I/O functionality spread across four 8-bit ports [1]. Operating within an industrial temperature range of -40°C to 85°C, the module offers programmable I/O capabilities with selectable VCCIO at either 3.3V or 5V through DIP switch configuration [1]. The device’s robust design includes buffered I/O with output capabilities of 32mA source/sink at 5V and 24mA at 3.3V, ensuring reliable performance in demanding industrial environments [1].
Integration and Compatibility
This new module comes at a strategic time, as Innodisk continues to strengthen its position in the industrial memory and embedded peripheral market [4]. The device supports both Windows (XP 32-bit, 7, 8/8.1, and 10 in both 32/64-bit versions) and Linux operating systems through native CDC-ACM drivers [1]. The module’s versatility is enhanced by its compact dimensions of 30 x 50.9 x 8.2mm, making it suitable for space-constrained industrial applications [1].
Market Impact and Industrial Applications
The launch of EMUI-0D01 aligns with the growing demand for robust industrial components, particularly as the industrial memory sector shows signs of recovery in early 2025 [4]. The module’s durability is evidenced by its compliance with EN61000-4-2 (ESD) standards, featuring Air-15kV and Contact-8kV protection [1]. This release comes as Innodisk expands its technological partnerships, demonstrated by its subsidiary Aetina’s recent collaborations with industry leaders like Nvidia and Qualcomm in edge AI applications [3].
