PCI-Bus Mastering Data Transfer

The PCI-1712/1712L supports PCI-Bus mastering DMA for high-speed data transfer and gap-free analog input and analog output. By setting aside a block of memory in the PC, the PCI-1712/1712L performs bus- mastering data transfers without CPU intervention, setting the CPU free to perform other more urgent tasks such as data analysis and graphic manipulation. The function allows users to run all I/O func- tions simultaneously at full speed without losing data.

Plug-and-Play Function

The PCI-1712/1712L is a Plug-and-Play device, which fully complies with the PCI Specification Rev 2.2. During card installation, you have no need to set any jumpers or DIP switches. Instead, all bus-related configurations such as base I/O address and interrupt are automati- cally done by the Plug-and-Play function.

On-board FIFO Memory

The PCI-1712/1712L provides an on-board FIFO (First In First Out) memory buffer, storing up to 1K samples for A/D and 32K for D/A conversion (PCI-1712 only).

Automatic Channel/Gain/SD*/BU* Scanning

PCI-1712/1712L features an automatic channel/Gain/SD/BU scanning circuit. This circuit controls multiplexer switching during sampling in a way that is much more efficient than software implementation. On- board SRAM stores different gain, SD and BU values for each channel. This combination lets user perform multi-channelhigh-speed sampling with different gain, SD and BU values for each channel.

SD: Single-Ended/Differential Analog Input

BU: Bipolar/Unipolar

Flexible Triggering and Clocking Capabilities

The PCI-1712/1712L provides flexibility in triggering action, both in the available trigger modes and trigger events for analog input. You can acquire data using post-trigger,pre-trigger,delay-triggerand about- trigger modes. The trigger source could be either analog or digital signal. The analog trigger could originate from a dedicated input pin. In fact, you can designate any of the analog input channels as the analog trigger input. You can also set the analog trigger level within a voltage range from zero to A/D FSR. When trigger signal being digital, you can pace A/D and D/A conversion using software interrupt, internal or external clock.
