Operation

3.1 Digital Output Port

The digital output port contains 16 bits of TTL level outputs, one END line (oEND),
two handshake lines (oDAV and oBusy), four control lines (/oRESET, /OE, oClear
and oTrigger) and logic supply lines (+5V and ground).

Output Port Organization

First Byte, Second Byte and oEND Bit Organization

In 16-bit mode, both the first byte and second byte ports are changed simultaneously,
that is, without respect to the IEEE 488 bus data transfer rate. The first byte is first
transferred into a holding latch. When the second byte is accepted by the
Digital488HS/32, then the first byte data are transferred from the holding register to
the output register. The following simplified block diagram illustrates this output
transfer.
