● Provides a user-definable, 40-line parallel interface with bit, byte, string and binary data transfer capabilities. Fully configurable to the user's needs. ● Signal monitor feature allows the 8003 to detect signal changes on 15 inputs. Reverse channel capability relieves controller of time consuming polling task. ● High-current drivers and input pullup resistors. Drives more devices, longer lines and inputs CMOS signals or switch contacts. ● VXI-11.3 Compatible. Works with the newest test applications and any computer. ● Device configuration, user's IDN message and IP address stored in nonvolatile Flash memory. User can easily set the power-on configuration. ● Includes ICS's interactive VXI-11 keyboard program. Includes ICS's interactive VXI-11 keyboard program. ● Interchangeable with ICS's 4803 GPIB and 2303 Serial boards. Easy interface conversion.
ICS Ethernet-to-Digital Interface Board 8003 Ethernet <-> Parallel Interface is a small, 40 line digital interface that can be used to interface devices with digital signals to the computer via an 10 or 100 Mb Ethernet network. The ICS Ethernet-to-Digital Interface Board 8003's high-power TTL level signals can easily drive small relays or other logic elements. In a typical application, the ICS Ethernet-to-Digital Interface Board 8003 is located inside the device chassis and is powered by the device's +5 volt power. All digital signal connections are on an upright 96-pin DIN connector at one end of the card. A vertical RJ-45 connector on the other end has the Ethernet signals. A right-angle RJ-45 connector is available on the ICS Ethernet-to-Digital Interface Board 8003H. Applications include controlling switching logic, operating displays or passing data to/from other devices.
All VXI-11.3 functions including device read, write, local, remote, clear, trigger, readstb, lock and unlock.

Signal Characteristics
The 8003's parallel I/O signals have the following electrical characteristics. All time delays lised here are maximums, all pulse widths are minimums.
Lines
40 Digital I/O, 2 Status and Reset Inputs
Input Logic Levels
High = > +2.0 V @ ±10 μA
Low = <0.8 V @ 250 μA
with 33 KΩ pullup to +5 VDC for sensing contacts.
Max. High = 5.5V
Input Timing
External Data Inhibit line sets within 1 μs of the active edge of the EDR Input signal and resets after data is loaded. Data loading time for 6 BCD/HEX characters is 350 μsec after the 8013 has
received a device_read rpc.
Output Logic Levels
High = >3 V with 3 mA source
High =>2 V with 24 mA source
Low = 0.0 to +0.55 Vdc, 48 mA sink
Output Timing
Data is transferred to the output 2 to 24 ms after receipt of a message depending upon data transfer mode and command.
Pulse width 10 to 30000 ms [50]
Data Stb
Output pulse width, 5 μs
Trigger
Output pulse width, 5 μs
Remote
Output level asserted when in the remote state
Reset
Output pulse width, 30 μs when 8003 reset or sent *RST command.
