The APC483 is a PCI board featuring four 16-bit TTL counters and four 32-bit RS422 counters, designed for various counter and timer applications. It supports event counting, frequency measurement, quadrature position measurement, and pulse-width or periodic rate monitoring. The device can utilize both internal and external triggering, allowing for synchronization with specific events. It operates with a clock frequency of 20MHz and can handle a maximum output pulse frequency of 200nS. The board is equipped with 16 bi-directional digital I/O channels and is compliant with PCI local bus specifications. The APC483 is suitable for applications requiring precise timing and counting capabilities, making it a versatile choice for engineers in need of reliable counter/timer solutions.
Several models with a variety of configurations provide up to ten counter/timer channels for counting events, generating waveform control signals, measuring pulse-widths, periodic rates, or quadrature position and monitoring operations.
Support for internal or external triggering simplifies the synchronization of operations to specific events. Counter functions can use internally generated clocks or an externally supplied clock.
