This manual describes the mechanical and electrical aspects of the PC-TIO-10 and contains information concerning its operation and programming. The PC-TIO-10 is a timing and digital I/O interface for the PC. Two Advanced Micro Devices (AMD) Am9513A System Timing Controllers (STCs) are used for the timing interface. With these chips, which feature many different timing and counting modes, the PC-TIO-10 can perform a wide range of pulse measurement and wave generation functions. A Motorola MC6821 Peripheral Interface Adapter (PIA) is used for the digital I/O interface; each of the two 8-bit I/O ports is bit-configurable. In addition, the PC-TIO-10 has two edge-sensitive interrupt inputs with programmable edge selection. Any external transistor-transistor logic (TTL) signal, including any of the counter outputs, can be connected to these interrupt inputs.
This manual describes installation, theory of operation, and basic programming considerations for the PC-TIO-10. The example programs included are written in C and assembly language.
