Digital Interface Circuitry Block Diagram
The digital interface circuitry is divided into a data acquisition section
and an SCXIbus section. The SCXI-1120/D connects to the SCXIbus
through a 4 × 24 metral receptacle and to the DAQ device through a 50-pin
ribbon-cable header. The digital interface circuitry buffers the digital
signals from the DAQ device and the SCXIbus and sends signals back and
forth between the DAQ device and the SCXIbus.
