The ABB DSDP160 57160001-KG, also cataloged as the DSDP160 Pulse Counter Board, operates as a dedicated hardware component for high-speed pulse acquisition and counting within ABB 800xA Advant control systems.

Model Identification

The DSDP160 module is an S100 I/O series pulse processing board designed for digital pulse measurement applications. The module accepts 24 V DC field signals and processes input pulses with a maximum frequency of 10 kHz.

Hardware Specifications

ABB Industrial Control Integration

The DSDP160 is configured for ABB S100 I/O architecture and provides pulse acquisition functions through direct field signal processing. The module communicates processed pulse information to the controller layer through the S100 I/O interface.

ABB industrial control modules within the S100 architecture use deterministic I/O communication paths for process signal handling. The DSDP160 supports I/O density expansion through distributed module configurations while maintaining defined signal timing characteristics.
