PEX-730 – PCI Express, 32-channel Isolated Digital I/O and 32-channel TTL-level Digital I/O (Current Sinking, PNP type)

New Products 2014-08-11



 

Introduction

The PEX-730 is the new generation product that ICP DAS provides to meet RoHS compliance requirement, and is designed as easy replacement for the PISO-730U series without any software/driver modification.

The PEX-730 supports PCI Express bus and provides 32 isolated digital I/O channels (16 x DI and 16 x DO) and 32 TTL-level digital I/O channels (16 x DI and 16 x DO). The isolated DI and DO channels both use a short optical transmission path to transfer an electronic signal between the elements of a circuit and keep them electrically isolated. With 3750 Vrms isolation protection, these DIO channels allow the input signals to be completely floated to prevent ground loops and isolate the host computer from damaging voltages. Each digital output offers a Darlington (NPN) transistor and integrated suppression diode for the inductive load. The open collector outputs (DO channels) are typically used for alarm and warning notification, signal output control, control for external circuits that require a higher voltage level, and signal transmission applications, etc.

The PEX-730 also adds a Card ID switch on-board. Users can set Card ID and then recognize the board by the ID via software when using two or more PEX-730 cards in one computer.

This card support various OS versions, such as Linux, DOS, Windows 98/NT/2000, 32/64-bit Windows 8/7/Vista/XP. DLL and Active X control, and provides various language sample programs based on Turbo C++, Borland C++, Microsoft C++, Visual C++, Borland Delphi, Borland C++ Builder, Visual Basic, C#.NET, Visual Basic.NET and LabVIEW to help users to develop their own applications quickly and easily.
