64-channel open drain for R&S®
Key facts Flexible digital I/O module with 64 channels The R&S®TS-PIO3B is a versatile digital I/O module with 64 channels that can be operated on all CAN bus slots both in the R&S®CompactTSVP and in the R&S®PowerTSVP. The R&S®TS-PIO3B offers eight ports with eight digital I/O lines each that have MOSFET output drivers. The circuitry is designed to drive RF relays with all common control voltages. The high current-carrying capacity makes the module a universal coil driver. Owing to its layout as a short card in the European format, the module can be integrated into the front area of the R&S®CompactTSVP. To allow standardized distribution of digital control ports, the R&S®TS-PTRF signal port and transmission module is available. Directly off-the-shelf RF relays or up to eight R&S®TS-PXM1 switching extension modules can be connected to this module. Arriving from the front, DUT signals can also be fed through to the R&S®TS-PIO3B module either directly or via a test fixture. Comprehensive software support for all functions of the R&S®TS-PIO3B module The R&S®TS-PIO3B module is supplied with an IVI-Ccompliant LabWindows/CVI driver, which offers function panels and online help as a common feature. Alternatively, all switching functions can be called via the generic test software library (GTSL) switch manager. The R&S®TS-PIO3B features are completely described in the GTSL software framework and are delivered to the user as a DLL file to support their use in various programming environments. Security through selftest and diagnostics The built-in selftest capability of the module provides fast diagnostics to verify base interface functionalities. The scanning tool derives the VISA address by a mouseclick and enables the user to verify proper interface operation at a glance.
features & benefits
  • Eight quasi-bidirectional digital I/O ports with 8 bits each, i.e. 64 digital I/O signals are available
  • Cost-effi cient digital I/O module with large number of channels
  • Outputs with MOSFET driver transistors in open drain
  • Circuitry designed for output currents up to 200 mA for robust and reliable relay control
  • All digital I/O ports available on the front panel, three of them also led out to backplane
  • Additionally, eight TTL I/O channels available, i.e. one TTL port for control tasks, if the R&S®TS-PTRF module is used, this port is already reserved internally
  • Eight simple analog inputs on the front panel, signal range: 0 V to 5 V, resolution: 10 bit
  • External SPI interface
  • Provision of +5 V/2 A and +12 V/2 A, fuse-protected on the front connector (X10)
  • Soft front panel for easy interactive manual operation for test purposes
  • DLL driver software and LabWindows/CVI instrument driver available
  • Routing of DUT signals via front-panel R&S®TS-PTRF module
  • Routing of three digital I/O ports and the CAN bus interface to the backplane in the area of slots A1, A2 when using the R&S®TS-PXB2 backplane extension module
  • Routing of three digital I/O ports to the backplane in the area of slots 3 to 14 when using the R&S®TS-PRIO4 option
