data transfer as well as signal acquisition and signal output.
3.1
Overview
The ES930.1 Multi-I/O Module is a compact, robust and powerful metrology
module with numerous input and output channels.
The module can be used for a variety of measuring tasks or for the control of
additional hardware in the development, application and validation of electronic
vehicle systems in the vehicle or the lab.
3.1.1
Input and Output Channels
Overall, the ES930.1 module features 4 thermo, 8 analog and 4 digital inputs. 4
analog and 6 digital outputs are available as output channels, 4 sensor supplies
and 6 half-bridge switches with current measurement as power stages. Since
the power stages are integrated in the ES930.1 module, the external signal con

Integration in the measuring Setup
The ES930.1 module communicates with the PC via Ethernet and is integrated
in the measuring setup within the decentral ETAS Ethernet topology (daisy
chain). The number of channels can be expanded by connecting several
ES930.1 modules to a chain. The acquisition of additional signal types is easily
accomplished by expanding the measuring setup with ES4xx/ES63x measur

ing modules.
3.1.3
Combination with the ES910 Prototyping Module
The combination of the ES930.1 module with the ES910/ ES920 prototyping
and interface module allows a broad spectrum of applications.
