PCI-1671UP
Introduction
The PCI-1671UP IEEE-488 interface converts any PCI bus personal computer into an instrumentation control and data acquisition system. Connect up to 14 instruments using
standard IEEE-488 cables such as the PCL-10488-2, 2 meter IEEE-488 interface cable.
Greater than 1.5 MB/s Transfer Rates
The PCI-1671UP transfers data over the GPIB at rates in excess of 1.5 million bytes per second using the maximum IEEE-488 specification cable length (2 meters times the # of
devices). A 1024-word FIFO buffer and the advanced REP-INSW ISR data transfer method provide the horsepower required to then transfer the data between the GPIB board and the
host computer. The high-speed state machine also provides byte-to-word packing and unpacking, and because words carry twice the information that bytes do, packed data requires
fewer bus cycles to transfer the same GPIB information.
IEEE-488.2 (GPIB) Compatibility
The PCI-1671UP adheres to ANSI/IEEE Standard 488-1978. Often referred to as the IEEE-488.2 bus, GPIB bus or HP-IB bus, the GPIB (General Purpose Interface Bus) is a standard
for instrumentation communication and control for instruments from manufacturers the world over. The GPIB provides handshaking and interface communications over an 8-bit data
bus employing 5 control and 3 handshake signals. Equipped with PCI-1671UP, a personal computer can:
Control GPIB instruments, gather data from GPIB test equipment, or become a data acquisition station in a GPIB system.
Software
The PCI-1671UP includes powerful GPIB-Library. The library greatly simplifies your programming effort. The PCI-1671UP is also supported by a wide variety of application software
packages including LabWindows/CVI
