Description

Features

• Can be inserted in PXI systems, with restricted functionality
• 3 software-programmable timers
• Connector and software compatible to digital I/O boards APCI-1500/PA 1500
• Monitoring program for testing and setting the board functions

Inputs

• 16 optically isolated digital inputs, 24 V, including 14 interruptible inputs
• Reverse voltage protection
• All inputs are filtered

Outputs

• 16 optically isolated digital outputs, 10 V to 36 V
• Output current per channel 500 mA
• Timer programmable watchdog for resetting the outputs to “0“
• Diagnostic report through status register at shortcircuits, overtemperature, voltage drop or watchdog
• Interrupt triggered through watchdog, timer, error
• At Power-On, the outputs are reset to “0“
• Short-circuit current for 16 outputs ~ 3 A typ
• Short-circuit current per output ~1.5 A typ.
• Self-resetting fuse (electronic fuse)
