ICPDAS PISO-730U

The PISO-730U supports 3.3 V/5 V PCI Bus and provides 32 isolated digital I/O channels (16 x DI and 16 x DO) and 32 TTL-level digital I/O channels (16 x DI and 16 x DO). Both the isolated DI and DO channels use a short optical transmission path to transfer an electronic signal between the elements of a circuit and keep them electrically isolated.

With 3750 Vrms isolation protection, these DIO channels allow the input signals to be completely floated so as to prevent ground loops and isolate the host computer from damaging voltages. Each digital output offers a Darlington (NPN) transistor and integrated suppression diode for the inductive load. The open collector outputs (DO channels) are typically used for alarm and warning notification, signal output control, control for external circuits that require a higher voltage level, and signal transmission applications, etc.

The PISO-730U also adds a Card ID switch on-board. Users can set Card ID and then recognize the board by the ID via software when using two or more PIO-730U cards in one computer.

The new PISO-730U card is designed as a drop-in replacement for the PISO-730, and users can replace the PISO-730 by the PISO-730U directly without software/driver modification. This card support various OS versions, such as Linux, DOS, Windows 98/NT/2000, 32/64-bit Windows 7/Vista/XP. DLL and Active X control together with various language sample programs based on Turbo C++, Borland C++, Microsoft C++, Visual C++, Borland Delphi, Borland C++ Builder, Visual Basic, C#.NET, Visual Basic.NET and LabVIEW are provided in order to help users quickly and easily develop their own applications.
