PCI-IDIO-16
The PCI-IDIO-16 is a PCI utility card with sixteen each opto-isolated digital inputs and solid-state FET outputs. The non-polarized, optically isolated (signal to signal, signal to ground) inputs may be driven by either AC or DC sources ranging from 2.5V to 50V, allowing smooth data flow even in noisy environments. The sixteen isolated FET outputs for switching DC signals are in three groups, eight with complete isolation, and two groups of four sharing a common ground. Fully protected solid-state outputs are inherently more reliable than electromechanical relays and give system architects a more robust product to design with.
