ETAS Digital Output Channels ("DO" Connection)
ES930.1 - User Guide 56
9.2 Properties
The digital output channels can provide signal frequencies in the range from
1
Hz to 60 kHz. The minimum pulse width is restricted to 150 ns. This restric-
tion prevents the generation of spikes on the output channels.
9.2.1 Output Restrictions
Fig. 9-2 on page 56 describes the rising and falling edge of an output signal.

Tab. 9-1 Digital Output Channels – Rise and Fall Time
An additional capacitive load on an output channel increases the rise and fall
times. For this reason, it is recommended that you use cables with a maximum
length of 4
m.
