The PMC-DIO32 is a digital I/O PMC module providing 32 bits of opto-isolated I/O. A PLX PCI9030 device controls the PCI bus and a Xilinx SpartanXL is used to provide the on-board functionality. The external I/O connections are selected at order time as either input, ouput or a mixture of both. The opto-coupling provides good isolation between the logic and the I/O and between channels. Programmable debouce and a watchdog are provided on-board.

PCI Features
The PMCDIO32 uses a PLX PCI9030 PCI interface to a 16-bit local bus on-board. The general features of the PCI9030 are:
PCI Local Bus Specification V2.2-compliant 32-bit, 33 MHz Bus Target Interface Device enabling PCI Burst Transfers up to 132 MB/s.
PCI Bus Power Management Interface Specification V1.1 compliant.
PCI Local Bus Specification V2.2 Vital Product Data (VPD) configuration support.
