Advantech's Burning Hot PCI-bus Analog Output Card: The PCI-1721

Advantech Industrial Automation delivers the best once again with our fantastic PCI-1721. The Advantech PCI-1721 is an advanced high-speed analog output card for PCI bus transfer. Each of the analog output channels is equipped with a 12-bit, double-buffered DA&C. It features many powerful and unique functions, such as a pattern output function with 10 MHz maximum update rate, an auto-calibration function and board ID. The PCI-1721 is an ideal solution for industrial applications where high-speed continuous analog output or real-time pattern output functions are required.

Terrific Transfer
The PCI-1721 supports PCI-Bus mastering DMA for high-speed data transfer and gap-free analog output. By setting aside a block of memory in the PC, the PCI-1721 performs bus-mastering data transfers without CPU intervention, setting the CPU free to perform other more urgent tasks such as data analysis and graphic manipulation. The function allows users to run all I/O functions simultaneously at full speed without losing data.

Awesome Output
The PCI-1721 provides four analog output channels. All of them can perform continuous pattern output. The analog output can be up to 10 MS/s for each analog output channel. Or you can load a cyclic pattern into an on-board FIFO, which will continuously generate the cyclic pattern. The on-board FIFO of the PCI-1721 can store 2 to 1024 pattern samples.

Voltage Value

Users can independently set the outputs to ranges: 0~+5 V, 0~+10 V, ±5 V, ±10 V, 0~20 mA or 4~20 mA, and all the ranges are software selectable. When the system has been hot reset, the PCI-1721 can either retain the last analog output settings and values, or return to its default configuration, depending on the jumper settings.
