This unit

The Keithley 7020 and 7020-D Digital I/O Interface Cards deliver high-density digital signal management for automated test systems. Each card provides 40 independent digital inputs and 40 independent digital outputs - 80 bits total - in a compact, cost-effective form factor. The 7020 uses a 96-pin DIN connector, while the 7020-D features dual 50-pin D-sub connectors optimized for frequent industrial connections. Both variants support monitoring and control applications requiring extensive digital signal routing without additional interface logic.

Open-collector drivers with internal 5.3 V pull-up or external supply to 25 V maximum

Per-channel sink current: 65 mA maximum

Per-bank (8-bit) sink current: 500 mA maximum

Per-card sink current: 1 A maximum

Collector-Emitter saturation voltage: <0.75 V @ 1 mA, <1 V @ 65 mA

Output protection: <18 Ω series resistance, PTC circuit protector per channel, internal flyback diode per driver

Capable of driving solenoids, relays, and small motors directly Environmental

Operating: 0° to 50° C, up to 35° C and <80% RH

Storage: –25° to 65° C

Key Features

Selectable internal or external pull-up voltage via jumper configuration

Per-channel current limiting and overvoltage protection

Low saturation voltage enables efficient driving of inductive loads

DIN and D-sub connector options for different mechanical integration needs

Typical Applications

Equipment control and device activation in production test environments

Digital signal monitoring in multi-unit automated test systems

Relay and solenoid switching without external driver circuits

Compatibility & Integration The 7020 integrates into test systems requiring modular digital I/O expansion. Connector type selection (DIN vs. D-sub) determines mechanical fit and cable management strategy.
