144-bit Digital I/O Card  

Introduction

The PCL-722 is a full-size PC add-on card that offers 144 programmable digital I/O lines divided into six main ports. Each port emulates the operation of an 8255 Programmable Peripheral Interface (PPI) in mode 0, but provides higher driving capacity than the 8255. Each port in turn consists of three subsidiary 8-bit ports (A, B, C). You can individually configure each of these 8-bit ports by software for input or output.

The PCL-722 provides an additional read-back function which lets you monitor the digital output status by taking readings directly from the output port.
