1. Introduction
1.1 General Description
The PCI-1800
(H/L)
and PCI-1802
(H/L)
are high performance, multifunction analog, digital
I/O board for PC and compatible computers in a 5 V PCI slot. This series features a
continuous
,
330 k Samples/Sec
.
,
gap-free
data acquisition under DOS, Windows 95/98 and Windows NT
3.51/4.0. This family has the same features: one 12-bit 330 k AD converter, two 12-bit
independent DA converter, 16 channels TTL compatible DI and 16 channels TTL compatible
DO. The 1800H/L provides 16 channels single-ended or 8 channel differential inputs. The
1802H/L provides 32 channels single-ended or 16 differential inputs. The letter
`
L
'
denotes
the low gain and the
`
H
'
denotes the high gain. Two DACs of this multifunction card are
independent bipolar voltage output with jumper selectable voltage output range. The AD scan
function of 1800 series is very amazing; we call it
“
MagicScan
"
. It scans with two modes:
the fix channel mode
and
the channel scan mode
, both modes can be up to 330 k samples per
second. We also provide three trigger modes for this series: software trigger, pacer trigger and
external trigger; each trigger mode uses
“
MagicScan
"
to perform the data acquisition. The
external trigger can be programmed to one of the three trigger methods : pre-trigger, post-
trigger and middle-trigger. The PCI-1800/1802 fully supports
“
Plug and Play
"
under
Windows 95/98/2000/XP.
The PCI-1202HU/LU,PCI-1602U/FU are new version of PCI-1202H/L and PCI-1602
they can be installed in 3.3 V, 5 V or 3.3 V/5 V Universal PCI-Bus. The PCI-1202H/L and
PCI-1602/1602F could be replaced with PCI-1202HU/LU and PCI-1602U/1602FU without
modifying software.
The PCI-1202
(H/L/HU/LU)
is very similar to PCI-1802
(H/L)
. The different items between the
PCI-1802 and
PCI-1202
are given as follows:
*
A/D sampling rate is
110 k Samples/Sec
.
for PCI-1202(L/LU)
*
FIFO size is
1 k samples
The PCI-1602/PCI-1602U
(FU)
is very similar to PCI-1802L. The different items between
the PCI-1802 and
PCI-1602
are given as follows:
*
A/D is
16-bit
*
A/D sampling rate is
200 k Samples/Sec
.
for PCI-1602F/FU
*
A/D sampling rate is
100 k Samples/Sec
.
for PCI-1602(U)
