  • Page 15: Chapter 4 Functional Details

    The PCI-DDA08/12 emulates two 82C55 chips, but offers much higher drive capability than the 82C55. The board emulates only Mode 0 of the 82C55 (no strobed I/O or bi-directional I/O bits). The PCI-DDA08/12 is completely plug-and-play, without any onboard user configurable switches or jumpers. The 48 CMOS/TTL compatible digital I/O lines are configured in four banks of eight and four banks of four.

  • Page 17: Calibrating The Pci-Dda08/12

    Calibration configuration The PCI-DDA08/12 provides self-calibration of the analog source and measure systems. This eliminates the need for external equipment and user adjustments. The analog output circuits are calibrated for both gain and offset. Gain calibration of the analog output is performed via DAC reference adjustments. Offset adjustments for the analog output is made in the output buffer section.
  • Page 18: In-System" Calibration

    "In-system" calibration The PCI-DDA08/12 is calibrated at the factory for the correct voltages at the I/O connector. For more precise application of voltages at the "system end", we can provide a version of InstaCal that allows you to calibrate the board within your system for correct voltages at your field connection.
