and analog circuits. Eight analog voltage inputs are provided with an input
voltage range of 0V to 10VDC. Six current outputs are provided with a
normal operating range of 0 to 20 mA.
Front Panel Connector
Board
The front panel connector board interfaces between the motherboard and
the front panel mounted function key panel and Graphics display. It serves
as central location to tie the three connectors required for the function key
panel, the graphics display control lines, and the graphics display backlight
to a single ribbon cable extending back to the motherboard. This board also
includes signal buffers for the graphics display control signals and a high
voltage power supply for the graphics display backlight.
I/O Components
External I/O is driven from a generic bus that is capable of controlling the
following devices:
• Analog output (voltage and current)
• Analog input (voltage)
• Digital output (TTL levels)
• Digital input (TTL levels)
Note The instrument has spare solenoid valve drivers and I/O support for
future expansion.
Analog Voltage Outputs
The instrument provides six analog voltage outputs. Each may be software
configured for any one of the following ranges, while maintaining a
minimum resolution of 12 bits:
• 0-100mV
• 0-1V
• 0-5V
• 0-10V
The user can calibrate each analog output zero and span point through
firmware. At least 5% of full-scale over and under range are also supported.
