Ver.2.13 .1.00 DA12-16(PCI) 1 Digital to Analog Output Board for PCI 16ch type DA12-16(PCI) * Specifications, color and design of the products are subject to change without notice. This product is a PCI bus-compliant interface boards that performs digital-to-analog conversion. This product performs D-A conversion using 16 output channels at a conversion speed of 10 sec [100KSPS] and a resolution of 12 bit. Using the bundled driver library [API-PAC (W32)], you can create Windows application software for this board in your favorite programming language supporting Win32 API functions, such as Visual Basic or Visual C++. Support for unipolar and bipolar output ranges An output range can be set for each channel by software. Two output modes selectable This product offers a choice of two output modes selectable. One updates only the output voltage of a specified channel and the other updates the output voltages of all channels. Capable of updating the output voltage using a sampling clock This product can update the output voltage periodically using the internal sampling clock or in synchronization with external events using an external sampling clock. Safety design to adjust output voltage to 0V when power supply is turned on To prevent the unstable voltage and the connected device of D/A converter from fault and malfunctions when the power supply is turned on, the circuit is designed to adjusts output voltage of the analog output to 0V. Optional units Using optional units facilitates connections. For more details on the option, please refer to “Cable & Connector” or “Accessories (Option)”.

The numbers correspond to channel numbers. Analog Ground Common analog ground for analog output signals. External Trigger Input External trigger input signal. External Sampling Clock Input External sampling clock input signal. Timer Output Programmable timer output signal. Settling Busy Output Output signal indicating the settling time from the beginning of DA conversion until the analog output reaches a predetermined value. Digital Ground Digital ground common to the signals other than the analog output signal, including the external sampling clock input signal. CAUTION Do not connect any of the outputs and power outputs to the analog or digital ground. Neither connect outputs to each other. Doing either can result in a fault. The sections below describe how to connect the signals using flat cable and shielded cable. The following figure shows an example of optional flat cable (PCA37P) connection. Connect the CN1 analog output channels and ground to the external device's input and ground. Connecting the Analog Output (Flat Cable) Analog Output Analog Ground BOARD CN1 Cable Target Digital Multi-Meter etc. The following example connects a signal source to this product using a shielded cable such as a coaxial cable (PCC16PS) available as an option. Use shielded cable if the distance between this product and external device is long or if you want to provide better protection from noise. Use the core of the shielded cable to connect the analog output of CN1 to the input of the external device and use the shield braid to connect the CN1's analog ground to the external device's ground. Connecting the Analog Output (Shield Cable) Analog Ground Shield cable Analog Output BOARD CN1 Target Digital Multi-Meter etc. CAUTION If this product and the target receive noise or the distance between the board and the signal source is too long, data may not be input properly. The maximum output current-carrying capacity of the analog output signal is ±5 mA. Check the specifications of the target before connecting this product to it. Do not connect any of the outputs and power outputs to the analog or digital ground. Do not connect the analog output signal to the other analog output signal and output signal of external device. Doing so may malfunction. Do not plug or unplug the interface connector to or from while the PC or external device power is turned on. Doing so may malfunction. The DA converter may cause glitches as it contains no deglitcher. The analog output signal may temporarily vary in output voltage when the power is turned on or when the range is switched. If this variation in output voltage is a problem, insert, for example, a relay between this product and the external device. This section shows how to connect the control signal(“External Trigger Input”, “Settling Busy Output” and so on) by using a flat cable. All the control signals are TTL level signals.
