PEX-TMC12A – PCI Express, 12-channel Timer/Counter Board

New Products 2019-11-21


 

Introduction:

The PEX-TMC12A card is a new generation product that ICP DAS provides to meet RoHS compliance requirement. The PEX-TMC12A utilizes the PCI Express bus and is designed as an easy replacement for the PCI-TMC12AU without requiring any modification to either the software or the driver.

The PEX-TMC12A provide twelve 16-bit timers/counters (four 82C54 chips x 3 timers/counters), 16 TTL digital input channels and 16 TTL digital output channels. The two onboard clocks (8 M/1.6 M and 0.8 M/80 K) are jumper selectable and provide a high-resolution clock source for timers/counters. Counters/timers can be used for industrial and laboratory applications such as pulse/event/switch-toggle counting, frequency readings, elapsed time measurement, pulse-width measurement, PWM (pulse-width-modulated) output, pulse (square wave) and rate generation, etc.

The PEX-TMC12A also adds a Card ID switch on board. Users can set Card ID on a board so that the board can be recognized by the ID via software when using two or more PEX-TMC12A cards in one computer.

The PEX-TMC12A supports a variety of operating systems, such as DOS, 32-/64-bit Windows XP/2003/2008/7/8 and Windows 10. ICP DAS also provides a DLL and Active X control for the PCI-TMC12A/TMC12AU, together with sample programs in various languages, including Turbo C++, Borland C++, Visual C++, Borland Delphi, Borland C++ Builder, Visual Basic, C#.NET, Visual Basic.NET and LabVIEW, enabling to help users to quickly and easily develop their custom applications.
