Advanced Data Acquisition and Control Features from ADVANTECH 12-bit, 100 kHz PCI-bus Multi-function Card The PCI-1731 is a multi-function data acquisition card for the PCI bus. This card provides multiple measurement and control functions. Model PCI-1731 offers 16 12-bit single ended channels of A/D input, 16 channels of digtial inputs, 16 channels of digital outputs, and one 16-bit timer/counter with a time base of 10 MHz. This card provides an on-board FIFO (First In First Out) memory buffer that can store up to 1K A/D samples. The card provides a programmable counter for generating a pacer trigger for the A/D conversion. The counter chip is an 82C54 or equivalent, which includes three 16-bit counters on a 10 MHz clock. One counter is used as an event counter for counting events coming from the input channels. THe other two are cascaded together to make a 32-bit timer for a pacer trigger. The PCL-10168-2 shielded cable is specially designed for use with this card to reduce noise in the analog signal lines. Its wires are all twisted pairs, and the analog lines and digital lines are separately shielded, providing minimal cross talk between signals and the best protection against EMI/EMC problems. Model ADAM -3968 is a wiring terminal that will take each pin of the 68-pin cable to a terminal block for convenient wiring.
