1.1 Description

The PCD-8006 is add-on PCI Express card intended especially for laboratory and industrial

automation and measuring systems.

The PCD-8006 card provides especially these features:

• six 8-bit bidirectional digital ports, software configurable as input or output

• IRQ logic with interrupt sources derived from rising or falling edge of each digital port

signal (i.e. 96 individually programmable interrupt sources) and internal timer

The PCD-8006 card is available in two versions:

PCD-8006 standard format card

PCD-8006/LP low-profile format card

In the following text, unless otherwise stated, the designation PCD-8006 applies to both

versions of card.

1.2 General instructions for use

The PCD-8006 card is suitable for installation in either office or industrial computers that are

fitted with the PCI Express bus (Gen 1 compatible).

Cable types and their maximum length are described in paragraph 2.3 General data.

Caution:

The cards are designed for DAQ&C applications and may be used only according to the

manufacturer's recommendations and precautions given in this manual and other general

standards and terms and may be used only such a way, that its failure caused by any reason

will not be dangerous to any person or property.

1.3 Note on the contents of the manual

This manual contains all information related to card features, I/O connectors etc., but does

not include a description of installing and using drivers.

For information about drivers and programming check the dedicated documentation.

1.4 New firmware versions and customer´s firmware

The PCD-8006 card is based on a FPGA unified core providing implementation of PCI

Express bus and all peripheral circuitry, e.g. solution that gives maximum control and

supervision over full functionality. High concentration of control algorithms within FPGA

allows to add or modify functions without redesign the board (e.g. firmware with added

special custom features or a build completely new custom firmware).

A simple software utility for user-friendly firmware upgrade is available.

Note: Digital bidirectional ports are not protected against overvoltage, stresses outside the

range 0÷5 V will may cause permanent damage.

The digital ports in the output mode are durable to permanent short-circuit against

GND while maintaining the maximum current of the 5V power source (see

paragraph 2.3 General data).

2.2 Interrupt logic

Interrupt sources: timestamp IRQ generator (1÷255 ms),

all digital ports

Interrupt trigger event: timestamp generator overflow,

any combination of rising or falling edges on all

digital ports

2.3 General data

Bus type: PCI Express (x1, Gen 1)

PCI ID: VID=1760H, DID=0800H

Bus power consumption: 300 mA typ. @ 3.3 V (500 mA max.)

150 mA typ. @ 12 V (500 mA max.)

Internal power supply: 1A max. @ 5 V (see note below)

Board dimensions:: 56 x 128 mm approx. (PCE-8019 not included)

Note: The internal 5V power supply voltage is generated by the on-board circuits from the

12V PCI Express bus power source and is used to supply the DIO ports and also to

supply PCE-16xx series external boards (see description of KX1÷KX3 connectors).

The total current of all 48 DIO signals when output mode is selected, including the

current consumption of PCE-16xx boards, must not exceed the permitted value.

3.1 Introduction

Attention has been focused on achieving a high quality and reliability during the

manufacturing process and attention was also paid to an inspection of the card before

being shipped to you. Detailed reading of this guide and following the instructions

precisely are highly recommended for achieving full quality and to prevent any damage

during installation. For further information see manufacturer's website http://www.tedia.eu.

3.2 Hardware configuration

The PCD-8006 card contains a single configuration element - a two-segment DIP switch (the

status of this switch can be read by the program to identify multiple cards as CardID value).

Check Figure 1 in Appendix of this manual for more information.

3.3 Installation

Important Warning:

While installing the card, please follow the principles for handling the circuits, which are

sensitive to the electrostatic discharge damage. Touch the card carefully only by the edges,

and do not touch the components or metal contacts on the bottom of the card.

The computer must be switched off before the card is installed. Always disconnect the

power supply cord and other cables connected to the PC!

The cards may be stored only in an antistatic wrapper outside of the computer. Failure to

comply with the rules listed above may lead to damage of the sensitive circuits of the card,

or even of the whole computer.

After removing the slot cover plate, plug the configured card into a free slot for expansion

PC cards and fix it in place.

If you plan to use the digital ports DIO4 and DIO5 of standard format card, install the

PCE-16xx series board (not included in the delivery package of the card) into the next

position and connect the flat cables. Similarly, if you plan to use the digital ports DIO3,

DIO4 and DIO5 of low-profile card, install the PCE-8025/LP adaptor board (not included in

the delivery package) into the next position and connect the flat cables.

Note: In the event of any queries, please contact the manufacturer's technical support.

See http://www.tedia.eu for more contact information.

3.4 Location of switches and connectors

See the Appendix, Figure 1 for location of configuration switches and connectors.

3.5 Connector pin assignment

The connector pin layouts are shown in Table 1 through Table 3, the connector pin

assignment is shown in Figure 2 (all in Appendix of this manual).

3. Installation

PCD-8006 User Guide

rev. 10.2015 I - 3

4.1 Introduction

The PCD-8006 card provides six 8-bit bidirectional digital ports.

The first three ports (identified as DIO0, DIO1 and DIO2) use the D-Sub 25 connector

located on the card bracket, the other three ports (ie. DIO3, DIO4 and DIO5) use header

type connectors located at the back edge of the card.

In case of the standard format card (ie. PCD-8006), the DIO3 port is accessed on the card

bracket via adapter cable PCE-8019 terminated with D-Sub 9 connector. Remaining two

ports (ie. DIO4 and DIO5) can be accessed via adapter cable PCE-1620 (card bracket with

D-Sub 9 connector), or other types from the PCE-16xx series adapter boards.

Note: Unlike the adapter cable PCE-8019, the PCE-16xx boards are not included in the

delivery package of the card.

In case of the low-profile format card (ie. PCD-8006/LP) all three ports DIO3, DIO4 and

DIO5 can be accessed via adapter cable PCE-8025/LP (low-profile card bracket with D-Sub

25 connector); there are currently no other option available.

Note: The PCE-8025/LP adaptor board is not included in the delivery package of the card.

The signal direction of DIO port (ie. input or output option) can be selected independ for

each 8-bit port (it is not possible to select direction individually for each of the eight signals

of one DIO port) from the user software.

The port direction and output data after computer is turned on or restarted are stored in the

on-board EEPROM memory and can modify by the software utility (by default, all ports are

set as input).

4.2 Description of digital ports

Drivers and receivers based on HCTMOS technology were used for digital ports.

In the output mode (ie. driver mode), the HCTMOS circuits provide true 5 V signal levels

with a high output current with low voltage drop and can therefore be used for direct

control of LEDs, optocouplers, or miniature relays (coil parameters 5 V, 500 Ohm).

In the input mode (ie. receiver mode), the HCTMOS circuits provide not only TTL signal

compatibility, but moreover high input impedance, very low leakage current and

protection diodes. The unconnected state of inputs represents the H logic level generated

by pull-up resistors 10 kOhm against a voltage of 5 V, and the inputs can be therefore also

used to direct connecting of floating contacts.

Check the Appendix, Figure 3 for detail information.

Note: Unfortunately, the concept of bidirectional ports does not provide the overvoltage

protection available to other ports of PCI/PCIe TEDIA cards.

4.3 Interrupt logic

The PCD-8006 card allows to trigger an interrupt (simultaneously with the timestamp IRQ

generator) by any combination of rising or falling edges of the signals of all digital ports.
