XVME-230 Intelligent Counter Module Features Overview • 10 MHz 68000 CPU • 16 independent counting channels The XVME-230 Intelligent Counter Module is a • Counting rates up to 5 MHz VMEbus-compatible intelligent I/O module which provides a variety of high-performance, high-level • Firmware-selected functions counting functions. The module’s architecture • Measurement · Period features Xycom Automation’s intelligent I/O kernel · Frequency which can significantly enhance system performance · Pulse width by itself handling many time-consuming functions that · Position would otherwise be performed by the host proces- • Control sor. This on-board intelligence also gives the · Stepper motor XVME-230 exceptional measurement and stepper · Duty cycle motor control performance. • Utility · Frequency output Many industrial applications require that time-varying · One-shot output waveforms be either measured or generated. The · Frequency division XVME-230 module is capable of handling many of · Periodic interrupt these measurement functions simultaneously. The module contains four programmable counting Applications circuits. Each circuit can handle four CLOCK inputs • Translators for stepper motors and four GATE inputs, allowing as many as 16 • Flow meters (turbine type) separate counting functions to operate at once. • Quadrature encoders • Voltage-to-frequency converters • Voltage-to-pulse width converters • Heaters © Xycom Automation DS-74230-001 Rev F Environmental Specifications Hardware Specifications Temperature System Time Base Operating 0º to 28º C (32º to 82º F) Frequency 5 MHz 0º to 64º C (32º to 147º F) Accuracy/Stability ±.005% Nonoperating -40º to 85º C (-40º to 185º F) Event Counting Circuit input range Up to 5 MHz Humidity 20% to 90% RH, non-condensing 16 32 Count range returned Up to 2 or up to 2 Altitude Frequency Measurement Operating Sea level to 10,000 ft.
