GENERAL DESCRIPTION
RTI-T260ANALOG INPUT CARD
The RTI-1260 is used to acquire analog signals and presenr
them to the microcomputer in a digital form. The data acquisition
section consists of a multiplexer, a programmable gain in-
strumentation amplifier, a sample-hold circuit, a l2-bit A/D
converter. Associated interface logic for transferring the resultant
digital signal to the bus. This basic architecture is shown in
Figure 2.

is performing a conversion. This prevents the voltage from
varying while the conversion is taking place.
Analog/Digital Converter (A/D)
The RTI-1260 contains a fast, l2-bit, successiveapprodmation,
A/D converter (AD574). Jumper selectable input ranges of 0 to
+ lOV and * lOV used in conjunction with the programmable
gain amplifier allows for a full scale input range as low as + l0mV.
The digital output of the A/D can represent the analog input
voltage using either binary, offset binary, or 2's complement
coding.
Power Supply (dc/dc)
The STD bus + 5V supply is all that is required to power the
RTI-1260 card. An on-board dc/dc converter is supplied with
each card to convert the + 5V bus supply to a low noise, isolated
+ l5V supply required by the analog circuitry.

RTI-1262 ANALOG OUTPUT CARD

The RTI-1262 is used to take a digital word from the micro-
computer and convert it into an analog signal (voltage or current).
As shown in Figure 3, the design consists of digital registers

which store the l2-bit digital words, four l2-bit D/A converters,

Multiplexer
The card has l6 analog inputs which are multiplexed, one at a
time or as a pair to the input of the programmable gain amplifier.
There are three multiplexer input configurations: single-ended, DOUBLE
AUFFEREO
dtfferential and pseudo-dffirential. ln the single-endedmode, sixteen
separate analog signals may be randomly selected with reference
to a common ground. For noisier environments, the differential DOUBLE
AUFFENEO

method can be used to reduce the effects of noise and bias current.
This mode reduces the channel capacity to 8 inputs. The pseudo- <c-l
differential modetakes advantage of differential inputs and provides < H

or the 38 Signal Conditioning IiO Subsystem.

Channel Expansion
The channel capacity on the RTI-1260 can be doubled by ordering
the Multiplexer Expansion Kit (PiN OAl0). This kit contains
two multiplexer ICs which plug into on-board sockets.
Programmable Gain Amplifier (PGA)
The outputs of the multiplexer are connected to a programmable
gain amplifier where the gain can be set to between IVA/ and
1000V/V, depending on the value of the user installed programming
resistor. By using the equation
( r : l + - f , . 20
- g kilohms
the value of the programming resistor can be determined for
any gain. Thus for a gain of 10, a 2222A resistor, with very low
temperature coefficient ( + 25ppm'C) would be used. In addition
to signal amplification, the PGA also provides: high input im-
pedance (l0MO) and common mode signal reiection (78d8)
when used in the differential configuration.
Sample-Hold Circuit (S/H)
The output of the PGA is connected to the sample-hold circuit
which "freezes" the analog input voltage while the A/D converter
Figure 3. RTI-7 262 Block Diagram
D/A Registers
The D/A converter inputs are software driven via double buffered
storage registers which allow two bytes of data to be loaded
simultaneously into the D/A converter so that the output changes
directly from one l2-bit value to another. These registers
"memorize"
the 12-bit digital word and keeps the D/A converrer
output constant until updated with a new value.
Digital/Analog Converter (D/A)
The RTI-1262 contains four CMOS l2-bir D/A converrers
(AD754l). Each D/A output can be independently selected.The
user has four output voltage ranges from which to select. The
l2-bits of resolution provide least significant bit values down to
l.22mY for a 0 to *5V output range.
Current Output (V/I)
It is often desirable to transmit an analog signal as a currenr
rather than a voltage since noise and IR drops in the cable and
connectors will not degrade the accurcy of a current signal.
Two of the four voltage ourputs can be converted to a 4-20mA
current loop output. These voltage-to-current modules (ADI
