Functional Description
Isolated inputs
The PCI-PDISO16 board has eight isolated input channels. A schematic of a single channel is shown in Figure
6. The signals are routed through a bridge rectifier so that the inputs are not polarity sensitive.
470 Ohm
Extending the input range
To extend the input range beyond the 5-28V specified, add an external resistor. Figure 7 shows the resistor and
the equations used to calculate resistor values for a given V

in
R ext = 100 * (Vin - 28)
Pw = R ext / 10 000
