National Instruments DIO 6533 Strobed I/O

Chapter 4 Signal Connections

DIO 6533 User Manual 4-12 © National Instruments Corporation

For unstrobed operations, you have a choice of two types of output

drivers: standard and wired-OR. A standard driver drives its output pin

to approximately 0 V for logic low, or +5 V for logic high. A standard

driver has several advantages:

• It does not rely on pull-up resistors.

• It is independent of the state of the DPULL line.

• It has high current drive for both its logic high and logic low states.

• It can drive high-speed transitions in both the high-to-low and

low-to-high directions.

A wired-OR output driver drives its output pin to 0 V for logic low, but

floats (tri-states) the pin for logic high. Therefore, a wired-OR output

driver requires a pull-up resistor to pull the pin to +5 V for logic high.

To provide a pull-up resistor, you can connect the DPULL pin on the

I/O connector to the +5 V pin, making the 6533 device 100 kΩ

pull-down resistors into 100 kΩ pull-up resistor s. A wired-O R driver

has the following advantages over a standard driver:

• You can connect two or more wired-OR outputs together without

damaging the drivers.

• You can connect wired-OR outputs to open-collector drivers, to

GND signals, or to switches connecting to GND signals, without

damaging the drivers.

• You can use wired-OR outputs bidirectionally. For example, after

connecting wired-OR outputs together, you can read back the value

of one of the pins to determine whether any of the connected

outputs is logic low.

Note: As of NI-DAQ 5.1, LabVIEW does not support wired-OR outputs.

Strobed I/O

Strobed operations, such as pattern generation and handshaking, use the

same data signal connections as unstrobed operations, with the

following exceptions:

• You can configure data signals only on a port-by-port basis, rather

than on a pin-by-pin basis. To configure data ports, you must assign

them to handshaking groups.

• Strobed output operations use only standard, rather than wired-OR,

output drivers.
