3.2 Isolated Input Ports (LTC, INCOM)
There are 4 pairs of isolated input ports on PCI-8124-C. Each pair
has two terminals. One is INCOMx, and the other is LTCx.
Because the input port of the photo coupler utilized on PCI-8124-C
is single-directional, LTC signal must be lower than INCOM signal.
When there is a differential voltage between LTCx and corre-
sponding INCOMx, the photo coupler will turn on immediately.
There is an internal resistor in the PCI-8124-C circuit as figure
shows below. So it is not necessary to attach additional resistor
connected outside the PCI-8124-C. The forward current of input
signal is 7.5mA to 12.5mA. The typical forward voltage is 1.65V,
and the maximum forward voltage is 1.9V. So users should calcu-
late the appropriate voltage applied on LTCx and INCOMx.
