Digital input/output
Table 5. Digital input/output specifications
Independently configured for input or output.
Power on reset is input mode unless bit is configured for alarm.
Pull up/pull-down
configuration
All pins pulled up to +5 V via 47 K kΩ resistors (default). Pull down to ground (GND)
also available.
Digital I/O transfer rate
(software paced)
Digital input – 50 port reads or single bit reads per second typ
Digital output – 100 port writes or single bit writes per second typ
2.0 V min, 5.5 V absolute max
0.8 V max, –0.5 V absolute min
Output low voltage
(IOL = 2.5 mA)
Output high voltage
(IOH = –2.5 mA)
Note 7: All ground pins on the device (pins 9, 19, 28, 38) are isolated from earth ground. If a connection is
made to earth ground when using digital I/O and conductive thermocouples, the thermocouples are no
longer isolated. In this case, thermocouples must not be connected to any conductive surfaces that may
be referenced to earth ground.
Temperature alarms
Table 6. Temperature alarm specifications
8 (one per digital I/O line)
Each alarm controls its associated digital I/O line as an alarm output. The input to each
alarm may be any of the analog temperature input channels. When an alarm is enabled, its
associated I/O line is set to output (after the device is reset) and driven to the appropriate
state determined by the alarm options and input temperature. The alarm configurations are
stored in non-volatile memory and are loaded at power on. Alarms will function both in
wireless mode and while attached to USB.
Alarm when input temperature > T1
Alarm when input temperature > T1, reset alarm when input temperature goes below T2
Alarm when input temperature < T1
Alarm when input temperature < T1, reset alarm when input temperature goes above T2
Alarm when input temperature is < T1 or > T2
Note: T1 and T2 may be independently set for each alarm.
Disabled, digital I/O line may be used for normal operation
Enabled, active high output (digital I/O line goes high when alarm conditions met)
Enabled, active low output (digital I/O line goes low when alarm conditions met)
Memory
Table 7. Memory specifications
1,024 bytes isolated micro reserved for sensor configuration
256 bytes USB micro for external application use
