Optimized for flexibility and performance, the board is ideal for a wide variety of applications, ranging from precision voltage measurements, to the analysis of complex audio signals and waveforms. Each of the six sigma-delta analog input channels can be controlled by either of two independent sample clocks, and multiple channels can be harmonically locked together. Sample rates are adjustable from 30 KSPS to 1.1 MSPS, and the input range is software selectable as ±1.25V, ±2.5V, ±5V or ±10V. Internal auto calibration networks permit periodic calibration to be performed without removing the board from the system. Functional Description: A PCI interface adapter provides the interface between the controlling PCI bus and the internal local controller through a 32-bit local bus (Figure 1). Each of the six input channels contains an input buffer, an adaptive digital-image filter, and a dedicated sigma-delta A/D converter (ADC). The inputs can be configured for either differential or single-ended operation, or an internal voltage reference can be applied to all channels to support selftest operations and auto calibration. Gain and offset trimming of the input channels is performed by calibration DAC's that are loaded with channel correction values during auto calibration. The use of calibration DAC's eliminates the missing codes that occur when analog input channels are calibrated exclusively in the digital domain. Each ADC contains a digital antialiasing filter that rejects out-of-band signals above approximately 48 percent of the selected sample rate. Conversion data from all active channels is transferred to the PCI bus through a 64K-sample data buffer that has a software-controlled threshold for generating interrupt requests. Multiple channels can be synchronized to perform synchronous sampling, either by a software command, or by external hardware sync and clock input signals.

Accepts 100kHz input at 20 VPP. Crosstalk Rejection: 84 dB typical, DC-10 kHz Antialias Filtering: Each ADC provides internal digital antialias filtering at approximately 48 percent of the selected sample rate. This digital filter is supported by a multi-pole analog filter that rejects interference at the harmonic images of the digital filter. The cutoff frequency of the analog filter in each channel is optimized automatically in response to the selected sample rate. Integral Nonlinearity: ±0.003 percent of FSR, typical Differential Nonlinearity: ±0.0015 percent of FSR, maximum Total Harmonic Distortion: 84 dB typical, from DC to 40 percent of sample rate q Operating Modes and Controls Organization: Two 3-channel analog input groups, and two sample rate generators. Each channel group can operate from either rate generator. The sample rate for each individual channel is selected by dividing the frequency of the assigned rate generator by any integer from 1 through 20. Sample Rate Generators: Either of two independent internal rate generators can be assigned to any input channel group. Each generator is adjustable from 19.2 MHz to 38.4 MHz, and provides sample rates from 600 KSPS to 1200 KSPS after division by 32 (x16 oversampling), or from 300 KSPS to 600 KSPS after division by 64 (x32 oversampling). Subsequent division by an integer from 1 to 20 for each channel provides sample rates from 15 KSPS to 1200 KSPS. (Specified performance is guaranteed only within the range from 30 KSPS to 1100 KSPS). Settling time when changing frequencies is approximately 20 ms, and settling completion is selectable as an interrupt event. Setting resolution is 0.2 percent or less; accuracy is ±0.08 percent. External Clock I/O: An LVDS hardware output clock can be derived either from a 16-32 MHz LVDS external hardware input clock or from an internal rate generator. The external clock input can be selected as the rate generator for any or all channels. . Multiple boards can be locked to a common clock by daisy-chaining the output clock from each board to the input clock of the next board in the chain. This requires a split I/O cable. As many as six boards can be daisy- chained together. Synchronization: Sampling can be synchronized within each channel group through software, or each group can be synchronized to an external LVDS hardware sync input. By using the daisy-chain configuration described for External Clock I/O, hardware sync inputs and outputs can be used to synchronize the sampling among multiple boards. Harmonic Sampling: Harmonic sampling ratios are implemented by adjusting the sample rates of channels within a group to specific fractions of the assigned rate generator frequency. (See Sample Rate Generators). Data Format: Software selected as either offset binary or two's complement Channel Tags: Each input data value is appended with a 3-bit channel identification tag. Buffer Size Register: Contains the total number of samples present in the input data buffer. Buffer Threshold Flags: A threshold flag is asserted when the number of samples in the input data buffer equals or exceeds the selected threshold. The buffer threshold can be any integer from 0000 to FFFEh. PCI INTERFACE q Compatibility: Conforms to PCI Specification 2.2, with D32 read/write transactions. Supports "plug-n-play" initialization. Provides a single multifunction interrupt. Supports FIFO DMA transfers as bus master. q Board Control and Data Registers (D32 Access) Board Control/Status Register: Determines the principal operating mode. Rate Generator Registers: Select rate generator frequencies. Channel Control Registers: Control the clock sources and sample rates for all input channels. Input Data Buffer: 64K by 18-Bit FIFO buffer. Buffer Threshold: Selects the input data buffer threshold. Interrupt Control: Interrupt source control and status. q Analog Input Buffer Analog input data is read through a 64K-sample FIFO buffer as a 19-Bit data field for each input sample. The data field contains a 16-Bit conversion value and a 2-Bit channel tag. A threshold flag occurs when the associated buffer contains a number of data samples that exceeds a software-selected threshold from 0000h to FFFEh, and can be used to generate empty and full flags.
