GPIO-MM
Reconfigurable 48-line Digital I/O + Counter/Timer PC/104 Module
GPIO-MM is part of a family of reconfigurable digital I/O and counter / timer modules with various port and pin configurations. Each board uses identical hardware with a 200K gate Xilinx Spartan II RAM-based FPGA. The varying configurations are based on different FPGA code. The FPGA code is stored in a flash memory on the board, enabling GPIO-MM to be reprogrammed in the field with different designs, including custom designs.
The GPIO-MM configuration provides 48 digital I/O lines and 10 programmable counter/timers. The counter/timer features are based on our legacy Quartz-MM board, while the 48 digital I/O lines are compatible with our legacy Garnet-MM board. This configuration combines the features of both these boards into one board to reduce your PC/104 stack size and cost.
Other GPIO-MM configurations provide up to 96 digital I/O lines.
Onyx-MM
Programmable Counter/Timer, Interrupt, and Digital I/O PC/104 Module
Extensive software control of features is the highlight of this digital I/O module featuring 48 digital I/O lines, 3x 16-bit counter/timers, and 3 independent PC bus interrupt inputs.
The 48 digital I/O lines on Onyx-MM are based on 2 82C55 ICs. They can be programmed for input or output in groups of 8 lines. Direct as well as strobed (latched) I/O modes are supported, and all I/O lines are connected to 10K Ohm pull-up resistors.
The 3 16-bit counter/timers are based on an 82C54 IC. They are controlled through a configuration register on Onyx-MM (in addition to the standard 82C54 configuration register). The counter inputs can be switched between external signals, the on-board 4MHz clock oscillator, or counter outputs, all under software control. By using one counters output as another counters input, you can cascade counters in software to create a 32-bit or 48-bit counter.
Onyx-MM also features programmable interrupt operations. A second software-controlled register on board configures up to 3 interrupt lines on the PC bus. Interrupts can be generated by the counter/timer outputs, digital I/O lines, or an external input line. This allows you to use a counter to generate bus interrupts at a programmed periodic rate, generate hardware interrupts under software control, or generate interrupts in response to an external event.
Onyx-MM-DIO
Low-Cost 48-Line Digital I/O PC/104 Module
If you are looking for a basic 48-line digital I/O PC/104 module, then Onyx-MM-DIO is what you need. This module is the same as our Onyx-MM digital & counter/timer module but without the counter/timer and interrupt circuitry. This board still has the quality and attention to detail of our other modules, such as: 10K Ohm pull-up resistors on all I/O lines; all ports reset to 0 on power-up or system reset; connector pinouts compatible with our other digital I/O boards; and free software.
The 48 digital I/O lines on Onyx-MM-DIO are based on 2 82C55 ICs. They can be programmed for input or output in groups of 8 lines. Direct as well as strobed (latched) I/O modes are supported, and all I/O lines are connected to 10K Ohm pull-up resistors.
Pearl-MM-P
Relay Output PC/104 Module
Pearl-MM is a PC/104 format industrial control module with 16 relays. The relays have PDT (form C) configuration. Each relay has 3 contacts: Common, Normally Open, and Normally Closed. For safety and reliability, all relays are in their power-off state (Common connected to Normally Closed) at power-up or system reset. The relays can switch both AC and DC voltages. They feature long life (100,000,000 operations), quick actuation time (4ms max operate and release), and isolation (500V AC or DC).

Diamond-MM
12-bit Analog I/O PC/104 Module
Diamond-MM has all the primary features you expect in a high-performance analog I/O board at a reduced price. The analog input circuit uses a 12-bit A/D converte and can be configured for single-ended or differential input wiring, as well as unipolar or bipolar input ranges. It also offers 10 different input ranges, so it can work with a wide variety of input signals. The maximum A/D conversion rate is approximately 2,000-20,000 per second using interrupts (depending on the operating system) or 100,000 per second using DMA.
Two optional analog outputs provide 12-bit resolution over a 0-5V or user-adjustable output range with 8mA drive current and 4uS settling time. The D/A can also be used as a digital attenuator for an analog signal fed into one of the reference inputs.
The board contains 8 digital inputs and 8 digital outputs. It has an on-board 82C54 counter/timer chip to control the A/D sampling rate and provide general purpose counting functions.
Diamond-MM is available in four models: with or without analog outputs, and in commercial (0-70C) or industrial (-40 to +85C) operating temperature range.

All these features are added on top of our existing Diamond-MM architecture at the same price as the original board, to bring you an unbeatable combination of features at this price level.
Pandora
Pandora Enclosure System
Pandora is an enclosure system designed by Diamond Systems for use with our PNL-EAP panel I/O board mated to a Prometheus, Athena CPU board. (When mated to an Athena, the upper temperature limit is reduced.) It features fast and easy assembly due to the fact that most or all internal cables can be eliminated. Rather than requiring the installation of special corner mounts or forcing the stack into a set of corner guides, the entire stack is bolted directly to the front plate of the case, forming a rugged, easily-handled assembly.
The PC/104 Pandora case measures 5.5" wide by 5.75" high. It comes in three lengths:
The 1.7"(43.18mm) case accommodates the CPU, the panel I/O board, and an optional notebook hard drive.
The 3.0"(76.2mm) case accommodates the CPU, panel board, up to two additional PC/104 boards, and an optional notebook hard drive.
The 5.0"(127mm) case accommodates the CPU, panel board, up to five additional PC/104 boards, and an optional notebook hard drive.
Case lengths accommodate PC/104 boards with stackthrough configuration (long pins on the bottom side) at the bottom of the stack so no special effort is required to obtain non-stackthrough boards or to cut the connector pins. The length is also sufficient to enable mounting a notebook hard drive below the bottom board and attaching it to the rear end plate.
The 3.0" length is designed with the intention of accommodating two additional boards. A typical configuration might include a VGA board and a DC/DC power supply for use in mobile applications. However any two boards can be installed.
The interior cavity is wide enough to install any PC/104 board with almost any I/O connector, including pin headers with ejector latches.
Each Pandora case includes case body, front plate to accommodate the panel board, rear plate, and all mounting hardware (screws and spacers). Additional end plates are available separately.
Jupiter-MM-LP
25 Watt Low-Cost DC/DC Power Supply
Jupiter-MM-LP (JMM-LP) is a low-cost DC/DC power supply ideal for PC/104 applications with lower power requirements. This supply is the lightest-weight PC/104 DC/DC supply available anywhere, due to the fact that it requires no heatsink. Extended temperature rating is included at no additional charge, making Jupiter-MM-LP a true bargain compared to competitive products that require an additional charge.
