PCI236
Low cost digital I/O board
AMPLICON PCI236 Features • 24 lines of programmable digital I/O • 32-bit 5V PCI bus compatible • Patch area for custom signal conditioning • 37-way D connector • Windows 95, 98, NT, 2000, XP, 2003, Vista and Linux support • Drivers for C/C++, C#, VB/VB.NET, Delphi, Agilent VEE and LabVIEW
Description General The PCI236 is a digital I/O board which uses one 82C55 to provide 24 TTL compatible digital input/output lines. The board is suitable for use in any PC that supports PCI bus version 2.1. Architecture The 24 digital I/O lines are arranged in three 8-bit ports (A, B and C). Ports A and B can be configured for input or outputs. Port C provides two 4-bit ports, each of which can be input or output. This allows great flexibility in the mixture of inputs and outputs provided by each PCI236.
Software support The PCI236 may be used in 32-bit Windows or Linux operating environments. Drivers are available for all popular high-level programming languages. The Amplicon programming library AMPDIO32 provides example programs with source code which can be modified as required.

The PCI 236 is powered by the 5V supply from the host PC. This supply voltage is available for external use via the I/O connector, along with +12V and -12V.

I/O Signal conditioning Provision has been made for the addition of signal conditioning modules for input and output signals. This is by way of holes for a 20 pin DIL header of between 0.3 and 0.9 inch pitch. Under normal conditions the I/O signals pass straight through the header.

Individual I/O signal paths may be broken across the header, to allow series elements to be inserted in the I/O port signal path. Tracks are easily broken by using clearly identified drill points for each I/O port. Typical signal conditioning modules which could be incorporated onto the board are high current output, resistor capacitor (RC) filtered input, Schmitt trigger input, opto-isolated input or optoisolated output.
