TempV/32B Description
The TempV/32B voltage scanning module contains 32 differential input channels and is capable of
measuring analog input signals on any of four programmable ranges: ±100 millivolt, ±1 volt, ±5 volt and
±10 volt.
For differential input configuration, each input must have biasing currents. A certain amount of current
must be flowing into the differential inputs or else capacitance-induced noise will make the inputs appear as
noise.
The low side of each differential input channel is provided with a switchable 10-k Ω resistor to analog
common. This allows a current path when no current is flowing due to no common ground connections or a
high-impedance input source. With no common ground connection, closing the switch connects a 10-k
Ω
resistor between the (L) input and ground and provides a common mode impedance.
The relationships between the DIP microswitches and specific channels are described in the table.
