Graphic symbols for block diagrams

Binary elements in compliance with DIN 40900 part 12, September 1992, IEC 617-12: modified 1991

Analog information processing in compliance with DIN 40900 part 13, January 1981. To document the linking of analog and binary signals, additional symbols have been used, taken from several DIN documents.

As a rule, direction of the signal flow is from left to right and from top to bottom. Other flow directions are marked by an arrow. Input signals are listed on the left side of the signal flow, output signals on the right side.

Description

graphics/xhelptemp/svg2png/svg_0074_206_resolved.png

To obtain more space for representing a group of related elements, contours of the elements may be joined or cascaded if the following rules are met:

There is no functional linkage between elements whose common contour line is oriented in the signal flow direction.

Note:

This rule does not necessarily apply to configurations with two or more signal flow directions, such as for symbols with a control block and an output block.

There exists at least one logical link between elements whose common contour line runs perpendicularly to the signal flow direction.

Components of a symbol

A symbol consists of a contour or contour combination and one or more qualifiers.

Description of the example symbol in the left column

Blue line: Contur

Dark red lines: Inputs

Green lines: Outputs

Green hash characters: Preferred location for the general function qualifying symbol

Dark blue asterisk characters: Alternative location for the general function qualifying symbol

Control block

A control block contains an input function common to several symbols. It is used for the collective setting of several trigger elements, for example.

graphics/xhelptemp/svg2png/svg_0077_209_resolved.png

Output block

An output block contains an output function common to several symbols.

graphics/xhelptemp/svg2png/svg_0078_210_resolved.png

Settable control block

The 6 digits in square brackets represent the address under which the function shown in the text is implemented.

graphics/xhelptemp/svg2png/svg_0079_211_resolved.png

Settable control block with function blocks

The digits in the function block show the settings that are possible for this function.

The text below the symbol assigns the corresponding unit or meaning to each setting.

Static input

Only the state of the binary input variable is effective.

graphics/xhelptemp/svg2png/svg_0081_213_resolved.png

Dynamic input

Only the transition from value 0 to value 1 is effective.

graphics/xhelptemp/svg2png/svg_0082_214_resolved.png

Negation of an output

The value up to the border line is negated at the output.

graphics/xhelptemp/svg2png/svg_0083_215_resolved.png

Negation of an input

The input value is negated before the border line.

graphics/xhelptemp/svg2png/svg_0084_216_resolved.png

Dynamic input with negation

Only the transition from value 1 to value 0 is effective.

graphics/xhelptemp/svg2png/svg_0085_217_resolved.png

AND element

The output variable will be 1 only if all input variables are 1.

graphics/xhelptemp/svg2png/svg_0086_218_resolved.png

OR element

The output variable will be 1 only if at least one input variable is 1.

graphics/xhelptemp/svg2png/svg_0087_219_resolved.png

Threshold element

The output variable will be 1 only if at least two input variables are 1. The number in the symbol may be replaced by any other number.

graphics/xhelptemp/svg2png/svg_0088_220_resolved.png

(m out of n) element

The output variable will be 1 only if just one input variable is 1.

The number in the symbol may be replaced by any other number if the number of inputs is increased or decreased accordingly.

graphics/xhelptemp/svg2png/svg_0089_221_resolved.png

Delay element

The transition from value 0 to 1 at the output occurs after a time delay of t1 relative to the corresponding transition at the input.

The transition from value 1 to 0 at the output occurs after a time delay of t2 relative to the corresponding transition at the input.

t1 and t2 may be replaced by the actual delay values (in seconds or strobe ticks).

graphics/xhelptemp/svg2png/svg_0090_222_resolved.png

Monostable flip-flop

The output variable will be 1 only if the input variable changes to 1. The output variable will remain 1 for 100 ms, regardless of the duration of the input value 1 (non-retriggerable).

Without a 1 in the function block, the monostable flip-flop is retriggerable.

The time is 100 ms in this example, but it may be changed to any other duration.

Analog-digital converter

An analog input signal is converted to a binary signal.

graphics/xhelptemp/svg2png/svg_0092_224_resolved.png

Subtractor

The output variable is the difference between the two input variables.

A summing element is obtained by changing the minus sign to a plus sign at the symbol input.

graphics/xhelptemp/svg2png/svg_0093_225_resolved.png

Schmitt Trigger with binary output signal

The binary output variable will be 1 if the input signal exceeds a specific threshold. The output variable remains 1 until the input signal drops below the threshold again.

Memory, general

Storage of a binary or analog signal.

graphics/xhelptemp/svg2png/svg_0095_227_resolved.png

Non-stable flip-flop

When the input variable changes to 1, a pulse sequence is generated at the output.

The ! to the left of the G indicates that the pulse sequence starts with the input variable transition (synchronized start).

If there is a ! to the right of the G, the pulse sequence ends with the ending of the 1 signal at the input (synchronized stop).

graphics/xhelptemp/svg2png/svg_0096_228_resolved.png

Amplifier

The output variable is 1 only if the input variable is also 1.

graphics/xhelptemp/svg2png/svg_0097_229_resolved.png

Band pass filter

The output only transmits the 50 Hz component of the input signals. All other frequencies (above and below 50 Hz) are attenuated.

graphics/xhelptemp/svg2png/svg_0098_230_resolved.png

Counter

At the + input the input variable transitions from 0 to 1 are counted and stored in the function block.

At the R(eset) input a transition of the input variable from 0 to 1 resets the counter to 0.
