Overview

Product overview

Key product information and technical features.

The NB-TIO-10 belongs to NI's Macintosh NuBus data acquisition hardware. Its Am9513 counter architecture supports up/down counting, selectable gate modes, and terminal-count pulse or toggle outputs.

NI documents 10 counters rather than eight: eight counters expose SOURCE inputs at the I/O connector. Software selection is also important for legacy integration; NI lists the board under Macintosh NI-DAQ 4.9.4 support and states that NI-DAQ 6.x does not support NuBus devices.

  • 10 general-purpose counters with 16-bit resolution and up/down count direction.
  • High-level, low-level, rising-edge, and falling-edge counter gating modes.
  • Two 8-bit digital ports with bit-wise direction control and software-polled transfers.
