Introduction CP383

1.2 Product Overview

The CP383 Digital Input and Digital Output Controller is part of a comprehensive concept to provide CompactPCI system integrators with a complete range of CompactPCI I/O products which include the functions of analog input, analog output, digital input, and digital output im­plemented as separate individual boards. This concept ensures a maximum degree of system design flexibility thus allowing efficient and effective usage of available resources.
As an enhancement to this concept, the CP383 combination board has been designed to im­plement digital input and digital output functions on one board. The CP383 is a 3U / 4HP Com­pactPCI board which provides 32 channels that are organized into 3 separate clusters, one cluster consisting of 16 channels for digital input, and two clusters consisting of 8 channels each for digital output.
The basic functions of this board are on the one hand to provide interfacing to the application (process), perform D/D signal conversions, and to make raw digitized data available for further processing via the 16 input channels, and on the other hand to provide a large number of au­tomatically controlled, flexible digital outputs within a ruggedized board equipped with features for electrical protection, such as overtemperature thermal shutdown, and overcurrent and un­dervoltage protection via the output channels. Each of the two digital output clusters can be configured for its own external supply voltage as required.
The major components involved in these processes are the front end (process side) signal con­ditioning (digital input and digital output), the High Side Driver (HSD) switches (digital output), and the Digital Input and Output Process and Communications (DIO ProComm) Controller which is realized in a field-programmable gate array (FPGA). The DIO ProComm Controller is designed to provide effective and efficient control of the digital input and output processes as well as interfacing to the CPCI system controller.

Introduction CP383
1.3.1.1 Board Introduction - Digital Input
The digital input cluster consists of 16 input channels. The source of the digital inputs must be a voltage generator. The board accepts only differential voltages up to a maximum of +30V. The input current is limited to 5 mA over the specified input voltage range.
Input signal processing begins with the presentation of the signal to the front panel connector. Signal conditioning prior to the signal reaching the DIO ProComm Controller includes: overvolt­age protection, ESD, low-pass filtering, inverse polarity protection, defined low and high rang­es, current limitation, optoisolation and buffering.
After signal conditioning, all parallel digital data is routed to the DIO ProComm Controller, where the control and status registers are set.
The DIO ProComm Controller controls the interface with the CompactPCI bus and the dedicat­ed software.
Input signal types and ranges are as follows:
• Edge frequency:
• Maximum 10 kHz
• Voltage Ranges:
• High range: +11V to +30V (+24V nominal)
• Low range: -3V to +5V
• Channel isolation
• The input channels are isolated from the system side and do not share common GND or VCC.
• Differential input
Output data
The following outputs are routed from the DIO ProComm Controller to the CompactPCI bus:
• Input data for all channels as a 32-bit value (each bit from 0 - 15 represents the status of
• Flag set information from the control and status registers
• Interrupts

1.3.1.2 Board Introduction - Digital Output
The two digital output clusters consist of 8 output channels each. The digital output requests from the system controller are processed accordingly by the DIO ProComm Controller and are then routed to the HSD switches, which in turn perform output signal conditioning using the ex­ternal supply voltage as the power source.
An external reset input is provided to simultaneously switch off all the outputs per cluster and sets all the HSD switches to open. Each cluster has its own separate reset signal input.

the respective input channel)
This reset can be used by the application to keep the inputs low after a fault condition.

1.4 System Relevant Information

The following system relevant information is general in nature but should still be considered when developing applications using the CP383.
Table 1-2: System Relevant Information
SUBJECT INFORMATION
System Configuration The CP383 operates with a system clock frequency of 33 MHz.
The number of CP383s which can be installed in any one system depends solely on the number of carrier interfaces available.
Master/ Slave Functionality The CP383 functions only as a slave. As such it requires a System Master for
servicing.
System Controller The CP383 cannot function as a system controller.
Digital Inputs Digital inputs to the CP383 must be conform to the inputs specifications set
forth in this manual for the CP383. In most cases, some form of signal condi­tioning will be required on the process side prior to a signal being presented to the CP383.
Digital Outputs The voltage source for the digital outputs of CP383 must conform with the
specifications set forth in this manual.

1.4.1 System Configuration

When implementing applications, precautions must be taken to ensure that the input signals presented to the CP383 comply with the specifications set forth in this manual. For this reason it will be necessary for most applications to provide signal conditioning prior to presenting the digital inputs to the CP383.
The external supply voltage (VCC) used as the output voltage on the CP383, must be within the specified supply voltage range. In addition, it should be a DC supply with good ripple and noise characteristics. Please refer to chapters 4 and 5 for further information.
