The GX5732 is a static digital input or output card with 224 I/O channels (pins) made out of 7 ports of 32 channels each. Each port is divided to 4 groups of 8 channels where each group can be programmed to output or input at a time.
In addition, the GX5732 has four 8-bit (1 byte), bi-directional, 50-MHz counters. An eight bit counter port can be used as input or output to any of the counters. An additional 8 outputs can be used as output of any of the counters, or as a Terminal Count (TC) for all counters. Six programmable inputs are provided for counter control: clock, gate, or load. The counters may be daisy chained to create two 16-bit counters, or one 32-bit counter.
GX5732 Board Side
The board has eight 68 pins SCSI connectors. J6 is used for the counters’ signals. J7 to J13 are used for digital I/O signals, JP2 factory installed and a jumper JP1, that is used for chassis ground. Additional jumper blocks not shown here are located on the board and are used for future expansion, the jumper are factory installed. Additional connectors, J1 and J2 in the back of the board are used to pass the PCI/PXI signals.
