Introducing the CIO-DAS801
Overview: CIO-DAS801 features
The CIO-DAS801 provides eight channels of 12-bit analog input, seven digital I/O, and three 16-bit down
counters.
You can configure each analog channel for differential or single-ended input using a bank of on-board
switches.
Input ranges are software-selectable as either bipolar or unipolar.
 Bipolar: ±10 V, ±5 V, ±1 V, ±0.5 V, ±0.1 V, ±0.05 V, ±0.01 V, and ±0.005 V
 Unipolar: 0 to 10 V, 0 to 1 V, 0 to 0.1 V, and 0 to 0.01 V
The digital channels are TTL level. Three digital channels are configured as inputs, and four channels are
configured as outputs. The DOUT1 through DOUT4 can be used to control external EXP boards. DIN1 can be
used to trigger and gate A/D conversions.
The CIO-DAS801 provides a 50 kHz sample rate.
You can set an interrupt level for the CIO-DAS801, and enable a wait state generator with on-board jumpers.
