Compression of PLC & DCS
Basically there are lots of differences. Let me start with the explanation of
application of a PLC and a DCS.

1. PLC as understood from the name (Programmable Logic Controller) executes

some logic operations (like AND, OR, NAND....) on the inputs and gives you logic
output (0 or 1). This is the basic definition of a PLC, but today almost all PLCs
can perform analogue operations on the inputs and can handle also analogue
outputs. A PLC starts executing lines of a program one by one up to the end of
the program and then starts to execute the same program again and again...

So with this explanation you expect to have one central porccessor for a PLC. If
you use one PLC for a large plant (let's say a refinery) and this PLC fails, all the
plant will stop.

2. DCS systems, on the contrary, are not used for logic operations. They have
some multi-function controllers. Each multi-function controller has some
controllers in itself and can control, for example, 8 instrumentation loops. These
controllers, like a physical controller, can perform PID functions. Each multi-
function controller has its own proccessor. So in a large plant they divide the
functions in different groups, and each group of functions is assigned to one
multi-function controller. So if the proccessor of one multi-function controller fails,
other groups will continue their operations and the plant will not stop completely.
That is why they are called DCS (Distributed Control System). It means the
control responsibilities are distributed.

In DCS systems there is also one PC which functions as an HMI system to

change and control the parameters of the controllers. Connection between this
PC and the multi-function controllers are normally done by an industrial network.
Comparison between a PLC and a DCS system is like comparing an orange with
a watermelon.
They are both electronic parts of a control system but with different
specifications.
In PLC case we have Analogue input/output modules. In DCS we don't have
them. In PLC case we have memory boards in DCS we don't have them.
This is enough for now.
