Application Information

The TIP610 is an IndustryPack compatible module with a TTL compatible I/O interface based on the Zilog Z8536 CIO, a counter/timer and parallel I/O device. The TIP610 implements two independent 8 bit, double-buffered, bidirectional I/O ports, plus a 4 bit special-purpose I/O port.

The Z8536 CIO allows configuring each of the two 8 bit ports as input or output. The third I/O port can be configured as I/O or as handshake-control-port.

A configuration jumper block permits to configure the two I/O ports as permanent or programmable input/output. Also the 4 bit port function is configured by these jumpers.

Software Support (TIP610-SW-xx) is available for different operating systems.
