If the board and the signal source receive noise or the distance between the board and the signal source is too long, data may not be input properly. An input analog signal should not exceed the maximum input voltage (relate to the board analog ground). If it exceeds the maximum voltage, the board may be damaged. Connect all the unused analog input channels to analog ground. The signal connected to an input pin may fluctuate after switching of the multiplexer. If this occurs, shorten the cable between the signal source and the analog input pin or insert a high-speed amplifier as a buffer between the two to reduce the fluctuation. In the channel switching, the multiplexer does the electrical charge and discharge on the internal capacitor according to the signal voltage. Therefore, the voltage from the previous switching state may go into the next channel. It might cause the error of the signal source action. If this occurs, insert a high-speed amplifier as a buffer between the signal source and the analog input pin to reduce the fluctuation. An input pin may fail to obtain input data normally when the signal source connected to the pin has high impedance. If this is the case, change the signal source to one with lower output impedance or insert a high-speed amplifier buffer between the signal source and the analog input pin to reduce the effect. analog or digital ground. Neither connect outputs to each If analog and digital ground are shorted together, noise on the digital signals may affect the analog signals. Accordingly, analog and digital ground should be separated. Leave "" pins unconnected. Connecting these pins may cause a fault in the board. AI-1664LAX-USB 6

7 Differential The following figure shows an example of flat cable connection. For each analog input channel on /B, connect the "+" input to the signal and connect the "-" input to the signal source ground. Also connect the analog ground on the board to the signal source ground. Differential Connection (Flat Cable) ] Digital I/O signals, Counter signals and Control signals Connection The following sections show examples of how to connect digital I/O signals, counter I/O signals, and other control I/O signals (external trigger input signals, sampling clock input signals, etc.). All the digital I/O signals and control signals are LVTTL level signals. Digital Connection The following figure shows an example of shielded cable connection. Use shielded cable if the distance between the signal source and board is long or if you want to provide better protection from noise. For each analog input channel on /B, connect the "+" input to the signal and connect the "-" input to the signal source ground. Also connect the analog ground on the board and the signal source ground to the shielding. Differential Connection (Shield Cable) If the signal source contains over 1MHz signals, the signal may effect the cross-talk noise between channels. When the analog ground is not connected, the conversion data is not determined. If the board and the signal source receive noise or the distance between the board and the signal source is too long, data may not be input properly.

Digital Output Connection About the counter input control signal Counter Gate Control (refer to the chapter 3 Connector Pin Assignment) acts as an input that validate or invalidate the input of an external clock for the counter. This function enables the control of an external clock input for the counter. The external clock for the counter is effective when input is "High", and invalid when input is "Low". If unconnected, it is a pull-up in this product and remains "High". Therefore the external clock for the counter is effective when the counter gate control input is not connected. Do not short the output signals to analog ground, digital ground, and/or power line. Doing so may damage the product. If connected to each output, a pull-up resistor must be about 10k to pull up with a 3.3V power source. Each input accepts 5V TTL signals. This product must be connected with 5VDC power supply (in a self-powered state). Connect with 5VDC power supply by using +5VDC input pin. When using the attached AC adaptor [POA ], please connect directly to the input terminals. When the accompanying power connector (MC1,5/3-ST-3,5, suitable cable: AWG28-16) is used to supply power to this unit, strip the end of the suitable cable and insert it to the power connector before firmly securing it using a screw. Connect to the ground. Connection with 5VDC Power Supply for Self-power Vi+ Power supply (5V) Vi- Power supply (GND) FG Frame ground POA Beside the AC adaptor, a power supply for installation on a DIN rail is also available (as an option). Use the appropriate power supply depending on the operating environment and application. When a power supply for installation on a DIN rail is used, connect the unit using the accompanying power connector MC1,5/-ST-3,5. AI-1664LAX-USB 7

8 Connect 5VDC power supply to the main unit. Next, connect the USB cable to the PC. Do not turn it on or off when using. If you remove, USB cable is first and then 5VDC power supply. When the USB module is not used, leave the AC adaptor unplugged. Continuously using the AC adaptor heated affects its life. Use the AC adaptor not in a closed place but in a well-ventilated place not to be heated. Do not remove the power connector [MC1,5/3-ST-3,5] attached to the AC adapter.
