Eight analog input channels are sampled simultaneously (up to 200 KHz each channel), and are software-configurable as either differential or single- ended inputs. The inputs can be sampled continuously or can be burst-sampled, and are supported by a FIFO buffer. The four analog output channels are accessed through independent registers, and can be updated either synchronously or asynchronously. Inputs and outputs have a factory-configured range of ±10V, ±5V or ±2.5V. A digital port provides eight bi-directional data lines and two control lines. Internal Auto calibration networks permit periodic calibration to be performed without removing the board or host from the system. All input and output channels are calibrated with a single internal voltage reference. This feature produces the optimum calibration situation, in which the board is calibrated in its actual operating environment. Software-controlled test configurations include a loopback mode for monitoring all analog output channels. Functional Description: The CPCI-ADADIO board is a single-width CPCI module which contains eight 16-Bit A/D converters, four 16-bit D/A converters, and all supporting functions necessary for adding flexible analog I/O capability to a CPCI host. The board is designed for minimum off-line maintenance, and includes internal monitoring and loopback features that eliminate the need for disconnecting or removing the module from the system for calibration. All analog input and output system connections are made through a single 68-pin subminiature-D front-access I/O connector. The analog outputs can be internally disconnected from the system I/O connector under software control. Offset and gain trimming of the 16-bit ADC and output DAC's is performed by 24 12-bit DAC's (Figure 1). System analog inputs pass through a selftest network that can replace the system signals either with a precision voltage standard or with the four analog output channels, under software control. This arrangement is used during auto calibration to determine the offset and gain correction parameters for the ADC, and for each of the output D/A converters. The correction parameters are stored in a calibration EEPROM for subsequent transfer to the calibration DAC's during board initialization. Auto calibration can be invoked at any time from the CPCI bus. Each analog output channel is accessed through an independent 16-bit data register in CPCI memory space. ADC conversion data are read by the bus through an analog input FIFO buffer. An auxiliary digital port contains eight bits of bi-directional data and two control lines, and is controlled through a single register. Communication with the host CPCI bus is provided by a CPCI Interface Adapter which furnishes a 32-bit local bus for exchanging information between the FIFO buffers, the adapter, and the Local Controller. All internal operations are managed by the Local Controller. 8302A Whitesburg Drive · Huntsville, AL 35802 Phone: (256) 880-8787 or (800) 653-9970 FAX: (256) 880-8788 I/O CONN DIFFERENTIAL ANALOG OFFSET/GAIN ADJUST ANALOG 16-BIT ADC’S INPUTS (8) INPUT 8 DIFF/S.E.
