1. Introduction
1.1 Overvie
The Check-MATE has all the primary features you expect in a general purpose
data acquisition board, but for a fraction of the cost. It offers 8 single or 4 differ-
ential analog inputs ith 12-bit resolution (and a sampling rate of 100ksps).
Each of the analog inputs can be programmed for unipolar or bipolar operation.
Like ise, the analog output uses a 12-bit DAC (and operates in unipolar or bi-
polar modes). In addition, there are 8 digital input/output lines ( hich are inde-
pendently programmable).
The Check-MATE is made available in t o versions, a standard model or ith a
USB option. The standard model is designed for embedded applications and
provides a simple Oi-BUS interface for control by a external microcontroller.
With the USB option, many test solutions can be quickly built by connecting the
Check-MATE to a PC laptop or desktop, and then running our GUI soft are.
No external po er source is required, since po er is supplied through the USB
interface. Any either case, easy access to the hard are is made available
through a convenient collection of scre terminal connectors.

2. I/O Description
2.1 Hard are Details
Access to Check-MATE hard are is made possible through a convenient set of
scre terminal connections (J2 - J5), and J6 ( hich consolidates all signals into a
single 40-pin header).
The analog inputs (or channels) can be programmed for any combination of sin-
gle-ended or differential operation. The diagram belo sho s examples of vari-
ous configurations. You ill also note the polarity of connections related to differ-
ential operation can be transposed as ell. Each channel can be programmed
for anyone of 4 different range modes (i.e., 0-5V, ±5, 0-10V and ±10V). Keep in
mind, the circuit provides ±25V protection on each channel.
The single analog output channel can be programmed for either unipolar (0-10V),
or bipolar (±10V) operation.
The digital circuit includes 8 independent I/O bits. Each bit can be programmed
for either input or output. While in the input mode, a bit can be programmed to
provide a eak pull-up (~10K). Each bit provides a TTL logic level and can
source/sink 25mA.
External control of the Check-MATE can be provided by a embedded controller
(such as the Micro-MATE), or ith a PC. Embedded control is supported by J1
(Oi-BUS interface), hich is a 10-pin header that includes a 3- ire SPI-bus, chip
select logic, po er and ground. In PC applications, connector J1 is replaced ith
the USB--MATE. The USB-MATE contains a USB connector (for the PC), and
a dual set of 7-pin headers that mount to the Check-MATE. The USB-MATE is
designed to interpret a set of ASCII commands sent from the PC, and then per-
form various Check-MATE functions. For more information on the Check-MATE
command set, go to Appendix A. To support embedded applications, a complete
driver for the Check-MATE is provided in TES-MATE (or Test Executive Suite).
After po er is applied to the Check-MATE, the analog inputs are configured for
single-ended (0-5V range), the analog output is set to zero (range is 0-10V), and
the digital I/O circuit is cleared (all bits inputs).
