Digital Output
The 34907A module has two non-isolated 8-bit input/output ports which
you can use for outputting digital patterns. You can combine the two
ports to output a 16-bit word. A simplified diagram of a single output bit
is shown below.
Each output bit is capable of directly driving up to 10 TTL loads
(less than 1 mA). The buffer for each port is used to drive a high
output from the internal +5V supply through the diode. The drive is
rated at +2.4V minimum at 1 mA.
Each output bit is also an active sink, capable of sinking up to
400 mA from an external power supply. The
FET is used to sink
currents and has a nominal “on” resistance of 0.2
.
For non-TTL logic you must provide an external pull-up.
A description of the pull-up calculation is given on the following page.
If used with an external power supply and pull-up, the external
supply must be greater than +5 Vdc and less than +42 Vdc.
