Continuous Analog Output

The PCI-1712 provides two analog output channels. Both of them can perform continuous waveform output. The analog output can be up to 500kS/s for each analog output channel. Or you can load a cyclic waveform into an on-board FIFO, which will continuously output the cyclic waveform. The on-board FIFO of the PCI-1712 can store 2 to 32K samples for the waveform output.

On-board Programmable Multifunction Counter/Timer

The PCI-1712/1712L is equipped with three programmable multifunc- tion counters/timers, which can serve as a pacer trigger for A/D conversion. The counter chip is an 82C54 or equivalent, which incorporates three 16-bit channels on a 10 MHz clock. And then we enhance the gate and clock input function for more applications, of event counting, pulse generation, duty cycle frequency generation, one shot, frequency measurement and pulse width measurement.

Note:

✎Pace trigger determines how fast A/D conversion will be done in pacer trigger mode.

✎For detailed specifications of the PCI-1712/1712L, please refer to Appendix A, Specifications.
