Power-On State
When the computer is first powered on, all lines are configured for input
and are in the high-impedance state. By default, the data and control lines
in the NI 653
X
are pulled down, even if the CPULL and DPULL are
disconnected. You can select the biasing of control and data signals using
the CPULL and DPULL lines:
•
CPULL line—For control lines, it is a user-configurable 2.2 k
Ω
internal resistor. You can connect the line to +5 VDC (
pull up
) or
connect the line to ground (
pull down
).
•
DPULL line—For data lines, it is a user-configurable 100 k
Ω
internal
resistor. You can connect the line to +5 VDC (
pull up
) or connect the
line to ground (
pull down
).
Caution
Do
not
connect CPULL, DPULL, or any other line directly to an external power
supply while the NI 653
X
is powered off. This action may prevent your computer from
booting.
For example, if you are using active-low handshaking signals, you can
connect the CPULL line to +5 V to place the handshaking lines in the high,
inactive state at power up.
Power Connections
The +5 V pin on the I/O connector supplies power from the computer
power supply through a self-resetting fuse. The fuse resets automatically
within a few seconds after removal of an overcurrent condition. The power
pin is referenced to the GND pins and can supply power to external digital
circuitry. The power ratings for the +5 V pin for the various
NI 653
X
devices are shown in Table D-1.
