Introduction 1

1 Introduction

ADLINK’s PCI-3488 GPIB controller interface card, fully compati-

ble with the IEEE488.2 instrumentation control and communica-

tion standard, is capable of controlling up to 14 stand-alone

instruments via IEEE488 cables. It is designed to meet the

requirements for high performance and maximum programming

portability. The 1KB on-board FIFO and a block transfer mode pro-

vide up to 1.5MB/s GPIB transfer rate. With an NI-like driver API

and VISA support, the PCI-3488 provides the greatest compatibil-

ity with your existing applications and instrument drivers.

Performance

ADLINK’s expertise in PCI interface cards was leveraged when

developing this newly designed GPIB controller. The PCI-3488

supports both 3.3V and 5V PCI buses and can be adapted to most

industrial and desktop computers. On-board 1KB FIFO is placed

between the GPIB bus and PCI controller to buffer GPIB read/

write operations. The FIFO eliminates the gap between the slow

GPIB bus (~1.5MB/s) and the fast PCI bus (132MB/s), and dra-

matically increases overall system performance.

Compatibility

ADLINK’s PCI-3488 is delivered with complete software support,

including a driver API that is fully binary compatible with NI’s

GPIB-32.DLL. All programs written based on GPIB-32.DLL can be

executed on the PCI-3488 without any modification. VISA library is

also supported to ensure compatibility with applications utilizing

VISA. The ADLINK PCI-3488 provides the “Plug and Play” com-

patibility with all your existing applications.
