FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION:

DS215ADCIH1AZZ is a Common Analog to Digital I/O Board designed and manufactured by General Electric as a part of the Mark V series used in the GE Speedtronic Gas Turbine Control Systems. The DNA/DNR/DNF-MF-102 are multifunction analog and digital I/O boards designed for UEI’s Cube, RACKtangle, and FLATRACK I/O chassis. These boards integrate 16 single-ended or 8 differential analog inputs, 2 analog outputs, 16 digital I/O channels, two CAN ports, and one RS-232/422/485 port. With 18-bit resolution, the analog inputs support eight software-selectable ranges from ±80 V to ±0.156 V, making them ideal for automotive, aerospace, and power generation applications. The per-channel programmable high and low voltage configurations, combined with the board’s A/D converter, achieve a resolution as low as 1.19 μV. Sampling rates reach up to 2000 samples per second per channel (16 kS/s aggregate). The board also features two 16-bit analog outputs configurable for ±10 V or 4-20 mA current.

The 16 industrial voltage digital I/O bits can be individually configured as inputs or outputs, operating within a wide voltage range of 3.3V to 55 VDC. Digital inputs include programmable pull-up/down resistors and A/D sensing for adjustable voltage thresholds, enabling state change detection with 5 μs resolution. Outputs support multiple configurations, including current sourcing, sinking, push-pull, or simple switching to Vcc or Gnd. Additionally, they can function as flexible controllers with PWM and 16-bit pulse width resolution or soft start. Each output channel’s PWM/soft start settings are programmable, and outputs are safeguarded by 1.25 A fast-blow fuses.

FUNCTIONS OF COMMON ANALOG TO DIGITAL I/O BOARD:

• The DNx-MF-102 board enables seamless data streaming for analog input, industrial digital input, serial, and CAN data, which can be directed to individual FIFOs or a single combined FIFO with timestamps. Analog and digital input timestamps are recorded at the start of a scan, while serial and CAN data receive timestamps upon each byte's arrival.

• Equipped with two 32-bit counters, the board allows counter inputs to be assigned to any digital input pin, while counter outputs can control two dedicated industrial outputs.

• For communication, the board features three ports: one RS-232/422/485 interface supporting baud rates from 300 baud to 2 Mbaud with 0.01% accuracy, and two CAN 2.0 ports compatible with Standard, Fast, and Fast+ baud rates.

• With 350 Vrms isolation, the board ensures protection between itself and other I/O modules, as well as between I/O connections and the chassis. Additionally, its analog and digital sections are isolated. Designed for extreme conditions, it withstands vibrations up to 5g, shocks up to 100g, operates between -40 to +85 °C, and functions at altitudes up to 70,000 feet.

• Connection flexibility is provided through a standard 62-pin “D” connector, making it easy for users to integrate with existing cabling or create custom wiring solutions. Various cable and screw terminal options are also available.

• The DNx-MF-102 is compatible with Windows, Linux, and popular RTOS platforms. Windows users benefit from the UEIDAQ Framework, supporting major programming languages and DAQ applications like LabVIEW and MATLAB. Additionally, factory-provided software ensures compatibility with Linux, VxWorks, QNX, RTX, INtime, and other operating systems, featuring extensive example programs for seamless integration.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS:

What are the key features to look for in an I/O board?

Important features include the number and type of analog input/output channels, resolution (bit-depth), sampling rate, supported voltage ranges, digital I/O capabilities, communication interfaces (such as RS-232, CAN, or Ethernet), isolation protection, and environmental durability.

What is the resolution in an Analog to Digital I/O board?

Resolution refers to the number of bits used to represent an analog signal in digital form. A higher resolution (e.g., 18-bit or 24-bit) provides more precise measurements. For example, a 16-bit ADC can distinguish 65,536 discrete levels, while a 12-bit ADC can only distinguish 4,096 levels.

How do input voltage ranges affect data acquisition?

The input voltage range determines the minimum and maximum voltages the board can measure. Wide input ranges (e.g., ±80V to ±0.156V) provide flexibility in connecting different sensors and signals without additional signal conditioning.
