Description

AIGND

Analog Input Ground—These pins are the reference point
for single-ended measurements and the bias current return
point for differential measurements. All three ground
references—AIGND, AOGND, and DGND—are connected
together on your VXI-MIO Series module.

ACH<0..15>

AIGND

Input

Analog Input Channels 0 through 15—Each channel pair,
ACH<

i,

i

+8> (

i

= 0..7), can be configured as either one

differential input or two single-ended inputs.

ACH<16..63>

AIGND

Input

Analog Input Channels 16 through 63—Each channel pair,
ACH<

i

,

i

+8> (

i

= 16..23, 32..39, 48..55), can be configured

as either one differential input or two single-ended inputs.

AISENSE

AIGND

Input

Analog Input Sense—This pin serves as the reference node
for any of channels ACH <0..15> in NRSE configuration.

AISENSE2

AIGND

Input

Analog Input Sense—This pin serves as the reference node
for any of channels ACH <16..63> in NRSE configuration.

DAC0OUT

AOGND

Output

Analog Channel 0 Output—This pin supplies the voltage
output of analog output channel 0.

DAC1OUT

AOGND

Output

Analog Channel 1 Output—This pin supplies the voltage
output of analog output channel 1.

EXTREF

AOGND

Input

External Reference—This is the external reference input for
the analog output circuitry. This pin is

not

available on the

VXI-MIO-64XE-10.

AOGND

Analog Output Ground—The analog output voltages are
referenced to this node. All three ground references—
AIGND, AOGND, and DGND—are connected together on
your VXI-MIO Series module.

DGND

Digital Ground—This pin supplies the reference for the
digital signals at the I/O connector as well as the +5 VDC
supply. All three ground references—AIGND, AOGND,
and DGND—are connected together on your
VXI-MIO Series module.

DIO<0..7>

DGND

Input or
Output

Digital I/O signals—DIO6 and 7 can control the up/down
signal of general-purpose counters 0 and 1, respectively.

+5 V

DGND

Output

+5 VDC Source—These pins are fused for up to 1 A of
+5 V supply. The circuit breaker is self-resetting.
