Ver.1.12 DA16-8(LPCI)L 1 Non-insulated type high precision multi-cannel analog output board for Low Profile PCI DA16-8(LPCI)L * Specifications, color and design of the products are subject to change without notice. This product is a PCI-compliant interface board that incorporates high-precision 16bit analog outputs, digital I/O(TTL level, 4 channels each), and a counter (32bit, 1 channel) function. This product supports a low-profile size slot and, if replaced with the supplied bracket, supports a standard size slot, too. This product can make your space-saving PC into a cost-effective analog output system. Using the bundled API function library package [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++. With plug-ins for the dedicated libraries, the board also supports MATLAB and LabVIEW. Multi-channels analog output This product is capable of outputting 8 channels. Rich set of basic functions Compact system providing high-precision analog outputs. Analog output control signal (3 channels), digital inputs (TTL level 4 channels), digital outputs (TTL level 4 channels), and a counter (32bit TTL level 1 channel) other than analog output are provided. Substantial control functions Capable of analog output in either time-based mode or external-signal synchronous mode. Filter function facilitating external signal connection Digital filters provided for external control analog output signals, preventing chattering Safety design to adjust output voltage to 0V when power supply is turned on To prevent the unstable volt age and the connected device of D/A converter from fault and malfunctions when the power supply is turned on, the circuit is designed to adjust output voltage of the analog output to 0V. Software-based calibration function Calibration of analog output can be all performed by software. Apart from the adjustment information prepared before shipment, additional adjustment information can be stored according to the use environment. Exchangeable Low Profile size and standard size slots Support for both of Low Profile size and standard size slots (interchangeable with a bundled bracket). Plug-ins for the dedicated libraries, the board also supports MATLAB and LabVIEW. We offer a dedicated library [ML-DAQ], which allows you to use this product on MATLAB by The MathWorks as well as another dedicated library [VI-DAQ], which allows you to use the product on LabVIEW. These dedicated libraries are available, free of charge (downloadable), on our web site.

No connection to this pin. *1 Pin Assignments is different from High-Resolution Analog Output Board for Low Profile PCI DA16-4 (LPCI)L. CAUTION Do not connect any of the out puts and power outputs to the analog or digital ground. Neither connect outputs to each other. Doing either can result in a fault. If analog and digital ground are shorted together, noise on the digital signals may affect the analog signals. Accordingly, analog and digital ground should be separated. Leave "Reserved" pins unconnected. Connecting these pins may cause a fault in the board. This section shows how to connect the analog output signal by using a flat cable or a shielded cable. The following figure shows an example of flat cable connection. Connect the signal source and ground to the CN1 analog output. Connecting the Analog Output (Flat Cable) Analog Output 0..15*1 Analog Ground BOARD CN1 Cable Target The following figure shows an example of shield cable connection. Use shielded cable if the distance between the signal source and this product is long or if you want to provide better protection from noise. For each analog input channel on CN1, connect the core wire to the signal line and connect the shielding to ground. Connecting the Analog Output (Shield Cable) Analog Ground Shield cable Analog Output 0..15*1 BOARD CN1 Target *1 The number of channels depends on each board. This product has 8 channels. CAUTION If this product or the connected wire receives noise, or the distance between this product and the target is long, data may not be outputted properly. For analog output signal, the current capacity is ±3mA (Max.). Check the specification of the connected device before connecting this product. Do not short the analog output signal to analog ground, digital ground, and/or power line. Doing so may damage this product. Do not connect an analog output signal to any other analog output, either on this product or on an external device, as this may cause a fault on this product The following sections show examples of how to connect digital I/O signals, counter I/O signals, and other control I/O signals (external trigger input signals, sampling clock input signals, etc.). All the digital I/O signals and c ontrol signals are TTL level signals. Connecting the Digital Input Analog Output 0..15*1 Analog Ground BOARD CN1 Cable Target Connecting the Digital Output Digital Ground BOARD CN1 Cable TargetDigital Output IOL=24mA About the counter input signal control Counter Gate Control Input (ref er to the page 3 Connector Pin Assignment”) allows the input of the external clock for the counter to be enabled and disabled. This function can be used to control the input of the exte rnal clock for the counter. When the input level is “High”, the input of the external clock for the counter is enabled. It is, on the other hand, disabled, when the input level is “Low”. Note that when it is not connected, the input level is set to “High” as the board (card) pins are pulled up. Therefore, the input of the external clock for the counter is enabled when it is not connected. CAUTION Do not short the output signals to analog ground, digital ground, and/or power line. Doing so may damage this product. Connecting the Analog Output Signal Connecting the Digital I/O, Counter and Control Si gnal
