Features
  • VME bus compatible high-speed counter board with 8-channel input
  • Counter mode and timer mode for a wide variety of applications
  • All eight channels have a 24-bit length counter
  • Capable of measuring a maximum pulse repetition frequency of 100MHz
  • External gate signal can be used to add a gate signal from outside
  • Internal gate signal can be programmed within the range 1ms to 990s
  • By setting the internal register from the software, the internal gate signal of any channel can be output externally
  • The gate switching toggle switch on the front panel can be used to switch between external gate signal input and internal gate signal output
  • 100ns, 1µs, 10µs or 100µs can be selected as the minimum resolution in timer mode
  • Counters can be used as a 48-bit counter by connecting them in a cascade connection
  • TTL or NIM level can be used as an input pulse signal
  • LED lamps for monitoring the status of input signals for each channel
  • Each channel has an independent interrupt vector, allowing various interrupt events to be issued
  • C-language sample program provided
  • Device driver for VxWorks available (option)
