Some users will want the capability of clearing each
digital output when the system (or PC) issues a reset
signal on the PCI bus. Some users will want to clear
their digital outputs only as part of system power-on.
The PCI-1734 satisfies both these needs by providing
jumper JP2. Depending on the application, this capabil-
ity may allow digital outputs to be “OFF” without
requiring a complete shutdown of processes controlled
by the card.
Complete loss of power to the chip clears the chip
memory. Thus, no matter how JP2 is set, if the power to
the PCI-1734 is disconnected, the digital output chan-
nel’s initial power-on state will be “OFF”.
Each of the 32 isolated digital output channels comes
equipped with a darlington transistor. Every eight out-
put channels share common emitters and integral sup-
pression diodes for inductive load, activated by
connecting PCOM to VDD. (Channels 0 ~ 7 use
PCOM0. Channels 8 ~ 15 use PCOM1. Channels 16 ~
23 use PCOM2. If the external voltage source (5~40 V)
is connected to each isolated output channel (IDO) and
its isolated digital output turns on (200 mA max./ch),
the card's current will sink from the external voltage
source. The current through EGND should not exceed
4.8 A. If the current for all channels combined exceeds
2 A, CN2 must be connected to the external ground to
share the extra current. The following figure shows how
to connect an external output load to the card's isolated
outputs.
