Description

AI<0…15>

AIGND

Input

Analog Input Channels 0 

through 15. Each channel 

pair, AI<i, i+1> (i = 0, 2, 

4...14), can be configured 

as either two single-ended 

inputs or one differential 

input.

AIGND

-

-

Analog Input Ground. The 

three ground references 

(AIGND, AOGND, and 
DGND) are connected 

together.

AO0_REF
AO1_REF

AOGND

Input

Analog Output Channel 0/

1 External Reference.

AO0_OUT
AO1_OUT

AOGND

Output

Analog Output Channels 

0/1

AOGND

-

-

Analog Output Ground. 
The analog output volt-

ages are referenced to 

these nodes. The three 

ground references 

(AIGND, AOGND, and 
DGND) are connected 

together.

DI<0..15>

DGND

Input

Digital Input channels.

DO<0..15>

DGND

Output

Digital Output channels.

DGND

-

-

Digital Ground. This pin 

supplies the reference for 
the digital channels at the 

I/O connector as well as 

the +5VDC supply. The 

three ground references 

(AIGND, AOGND, and 
DGND) are connected 

together.

CNT0_CLK

DGND

Input

Counter 0 Clock Input. The 

clock input of counter 0 

can be either external or 

internal , as set by soft-

ware.

CNT0_OUT

DGND

Output

Counter 0 Output.

CNT0_GATE

DGND

Input

Counter 0 Gate Control.

PACER_OUT

DGND

Output

Pacer Clock Output. This 

pin pulses once for each 
pacer clock when turned 

on. If A/D conversion is in 

the pacer trigger mode, 

users can use this signal 

as a synchronous signal 

for other applications.

TRG_GATE

DGND

Input

A/D External Trigger Gate. 
When TRG _GATE is con-

nected to DGND, it will dis-

able the external trigger 

signal to input.

EXT_TRG

DGND

Input

A/D External Trigger. This 

pin is external trigger sig-

nal input for the A/D con-

version. A low-to-high 

edge triggers A/D conver-

sion to start.

+12V

DGND

Output

+12 VDC Source.

+5V

DGND

Output

+5 VDC Source.
