Digital input

When a flex I/O port is configured as a digital input, the port measures two states: 1 or 0;
On or Off; high or low. A closed circuit = a logic 1 and an open circuit = a logic 0.

Equivalent Digital Input Circuit

The Digital Input mode has two configurable options:

1.

The ability to turn on an internal pull-up resistor to +5 VDC (shown below as SW2)

2.

Adjustable detection threshold voltages

The default threshold voltages follow standard TTL logic: a voltage below 0.8 VDC is
measured as logic low and a voltage above 2.0 VDC is measured as logic high. Using an
adjustable threshold, the integrator can select the proper high and low voltages for the
installation.

NOTE: In the figure below, the SW2 switch is turned closed, activating the +5 VDC and

2K pull-up resistor.
