Prairie Digital Model 30 General Purpose Data Acquisition System. The Model 30 is a half size ISA card which may be used in even the oldest of PCS. Connections to the external world may be made using an included 60 conductor ribbon cable. As most applications require only a few leads, one can wire-wrap to this connector and save the inconvenience of a 60-conductor ribbon cable and an external break out box. It features a TI TLC549 8-bit serial A/D and a 4051 CMOS 8-channel analog multiplexer. All of this is controlled with an 8255. The address decoding may be set to either 0x0304-0x0307 (factory settings) or to 0x0284-0x0287. Determined by J1 and J2. The card may optionally be used for 24 I/O lines by removing straps J3, J4, J5 and J6 which removes the A/D and J7, J8 and J9 which removes the address leads associated with the 4051 multiplexer. The positive and negative A/D references are fixed at +5VDC and ground. The +5V reference is derived from an LM317 voltage regulator (as opposed to using the PCS +5V supply as a reference). The following routine was written in TurboC (DOS) but be easily adjusted for any other C or BASIC etc. It illustrates how to use the card to make eight temperature measurements where each temperature sensor consists of +5 VDC (terminal B7) through a series resistor R1 and an NTC thermistor to ground (terminal A32). The center node of each is connected to one of the analog input channels; terminals A21, A20, A19, A22, B19, B22, B20 and B21, corresponding the channels 0-7, respectively. The INH and Vee leads on the 4051 (terminals A17 and B17) are both tied to ground (terminal A32). The routine assumes the address straps J1 and J2 are set for addresses 0x0304-0x0307, J3-J6 are in (A/D in circuit) and J7-J9 are in (4051 addressing in). /* ** File A_D.C Uses Prairie Digital Board to make temperature measurements at ** 8 points. ** ** Intended to illustrate how to perform A/D measurements and use the 4051 ** analog multiplexer. ** ** Sample routine by Rosy Cordova & P.
