    Digital Input/Output Operation The PCIE-1884 card supports 32 digital I/O channels. Each byte can be used as either an input port or an output port by configuring the corresponding parameter. All four channels of the byte have the same configuration.
  • Page 33 Pulse Width Measurement Connection The PCIE-1884’s built-in counter can measure the pulse width value of the sig- nal connected to the counter input. The measurable range is 50 ns to 107 sec- onds. Both the logic high time and logic low time can be measured within the measurable range.
  • Page 34 PWM Output PCIE-1884 can generate PWM (pulse width modulation) signals. Users can configure the logic high time and logic low time as shown in the figure below. The available period for logic high time and logic low time is 100 ns ~ 214 sec- onds.
  • Page 35 A (Source) and B (Aux). The counter increments on each active edge of channel A when channel B is low, and decrements on each active edge of channel A when channel B is high, as shown in the figure below. PCIE-1884 User Manual...
  • Page 36 Users can program the width of the generated pulse. The range of the pulse width is from 10 ns to 42.94967295 seconds in step of 10 ns. An example position comparison using quadrature X4 encoding is shown in the figure below. PCIE-1884 User Manual...
