10. DATA ACQUISITION CIRCUIT
Model PR-Z32-EA contains a data acquisition subsystem consisting of A/D, D/A, digital I/O, and
counter/timer features. This subsystem is equivalent to a complete add-on data acquisition
module.
counter/timer features. This subsystem is equivalent to a complete add-on data acquisition
module.
The A/D section includes a 16-bit A/D converter, 16 input channels, and a 48-sample FIFO. Input
ranges are programmable, and the maximum sampling rate is 100KHz. The D/A section includes
4 12-bit D/A channels. The digital I/O section includes 24 lines with programmable direction. The
counter/timer section includes a 24-bit counter/timer to control A/D sampling rates and a 16-bit
counter/timer for user applications.

High-speed A/D sampling is supported with interrupts and a FIFO. The FIFO is used to store a
user-selected number of samples, and the interrupt occurs when the FIFO reaches this threshold.
Once the interrupt occurs, an interrupt routine runs and reads the data out of the FIFO. In this way
the interrupt rate is reduced by a factor equal to the size of the FIFO threshold, enabling a faster
A/D sampling rate. In DOS or similar low-overhead operating systems the circuit can operate at
sampling rates of up to 100KHz, with an interrupt rate of 6.6-10KHz. (An interrupt rate of above
approximately 2KHz is difficult to sustain in Windows without the possibility of missing samples.)

The A/D circuit uses the default settings of I/O address range 280h – 28Fh (base address 280)
and IRQ 5. These settings can be changed if needed. The I/O address range is changed in the
BIOS, and the interrupt level is changed with jumper block J10.
