Configuring The Differential I/O - The IOS Variable

The high speed differential I/O is configured by means of the IOS variable, and is used in the the same

fashion in which the isolated I/O is configured. The main difference lies in that there are three additional

parameters which need to be set in configuring the triggering, clock type, and ratio mode setting.

It is important to note that the high speed differential I/O lines may be used for the same input or output functions

as the isolated digital I/O where the higher speed capabilities of the differential I/O is required. However, for

purposes of this example we will only illustrate the clock functions associated with the high speed differential I/O.

Figure 6.5 following illustrates the IOS variable settings for the high speed differential I/O.

Configuring an Input

Clocks 2, 3 and 4 can be configured as high speed inputs, or as a general purpose input in the same fashion

as the Isolated I/O. In configuring the Differential I/O line as a general purpose input you would typically

use the “+” line of the line pair. You cannot use both lines as separate I/O lines. The figure below shows the

Input Equivalent Circuit with the I/O line pair connected to channel A of a differential encoder. This feature
