Each channel can be configured for either Synchro, Differential Resolver, or Single- Ended Resolver outputs. See Table 2 below for the different signal connections. Refer to Table 9 for the connector pinout. Data Device Corporation SB-36230KX Manual www.ddc-web.com Rev G – 4/19...
Note: When using single-ended configurations, S1 and S4 on the card’s connector are disabled. Use associated analog ground on the card’s connector per output channel as a return to ground for outputs S2(Cos) and S3(Sin). Data Device Corporation SB-36230KX Manual www.ddc-web.com Rev G – 4/19...
The output voltage for each channel is determined by the reference input voltage and transformation ratio. The transformation ratio is software programmable. See Table 3 for the different output voltage configurations. The output voltage configuration is programmable using the Set_D2rsChOutput() function.

Two speed allows resolutions greater than 16 bits to be achieved. Refer to the Two- Speed Application Note (AN/MFT-10), the RD/RDC Applications Manual (MN- 19220XX-001) and the Synchro/Resolver Conversion Handbook. These documents are available at www.ddc-web.com. 4.1.5 Self Test The device has a built-in self test capability which uses an internal DC reference to exercise all channels and indicates a pass or fail status for each channel.

Once this occurs, a power cycle to the computer will be necessary to restore all channels. Each DC-to-DC converter’s active status is monitored in a register accessible through software. See the Get_D2rsRefStatus() function for details. Data Device Corporation SB-36230KX Manual www.ddc-web.com Rev G – 4/19...
The programmed rotation speed corresponds to a frequency of the AC output waveform, and results in a time-varying voltage waveform.
