Overvoltage on Analog Input: If a voltage applied to an analog input exceeds the power specification of the board, the input multiplexer and/or parts behind it can be damaged. Most Diamond Systems boards will withstand an erroneous connection of up to 36V on the analog inputs, even when the board is powered off, but not on all boards, and not under all conditions.
Support for the AGX Xavier 8 GB Modules will be provided subsequently. Packaged in an ultra-compact sized form-factor measuring H 3.6” x W 4.13” (92 mm x 105 mm) Stevie baseboard is empowered to deliver the latest technologically innovative breakthroughs by converging Fifth Generation (5G) and Fourth Generation (4G) Networking Technologies.

The conversion formulas between the input voltage and A/D code shown below, are based on the ideal case scenario. A/D Conversion Formulas A/D code = input voltage / 3.3V x 4096 (min value 0, max value 4095) Input voltage = A/D code / 4096 x 3.3V Stevie User Manual Rev 1.03 www.diamondsystems.com Page 40...
Page 41
All A/D circuits are susceptible to inherent gain and offset errors depending upon factors such as temperature. The SAM circuit calibrates some of these errors to provide better accuracy. The Diamond Systems driver and Programming Library calibrate raw uncorrected data or corrected data with greater accuracy between the A/D input range of 0V and/or 3.3V.
D51 Microcontroller Package No. TQFP-64 and are applicable when using the microcontroller. The pinout specifications in the table do not apply to the Diamond Programming Library functions since the mapping functions are managed by the software.
