Measurement Computing / Data Translation DT340 PCI Counter/Timer and Digital I/O Board Overview
Features:
- Combines Digital I/O and Counter/Timer Functions in One PCI Slot
- Four Internal Interval Timers Enable Periodic Interrupt
- (32) Digital I/O Channels for High Channel-Count Requirements
Ideal for applications that require automated counter/timer and control capabilities, the DT340 is the first board to combine digital I/O and counter/timer functions in a single PCI slot.
Traditional counter/timer circuits with standard 9513 and 8254 chips are hampered by limitations in speed and flexibility. Measurement Computing / Data Translation's new custom counter/timer design overcomes these limitations, enabling frequencies up to 20 MHz and providing superior flexibility.
Each of the eight counter/timers accepts a clock input and gate input signal, and outputs a clock output signal. Each counter can use a time base generated from an internal clock or from an external clock. The internal clock uses a 25 ns time base with output frequencies ranging from 610 Hz to 20 MHz. An external clock is useful when you want to pace counter/ timer operations at rates not available with the internal clock or if you want to pace at uneven intervals.
You can also internally route the clock output signal from one counter/ timer to the clock input signal of the next counter/timer to internally cascade the counter/timers. In this way, you can create a 32-bit counter/timer. If you want to cascade more than two counter/timers, you can connect the counter/timers externally using the screw terminal panel accessory.
Additionally, you can set each counter to interrupt the CPU when it reaches a count of 0.
The Measurement Computing DT340 PCI Counter/Timer and Digital I/O Board may still be available for purchase and support from Artisan Technology Group beyond End-Of-Life (EOL) by the manufacturer (OEM).

Includes programmable debounce filtering, interrupt generation on counter events, and cascadable counters for extended counting ranges. Supports quadrature encoder inputs with 4X decoding. Common applications include motion control feedback, frequency analysis, event timing, pulse train generation, and general-purpose digital control in automated test systems and industrial monitoring.
Platforms
PCI bus-compatible computer system supporting 5V signaling with available half-length PCI slot. Compatible with various operating systems via included drivers. Interfaces with external devices through screw terminal connections. Accepts 32-bit input counter signals up to 10 MHz and provides digital I/O channels. Designed for high-precision timing, frequency/pulse measurement, event counting, pulse width modulation, and digital signal control applications in industrial automation, research, and test equipment environments.
Applications
PCI interface board designed for high-speed counting, timing, and digital I/O operations within industrial and laboratory automation systems. It connects via standard PCI slots to host PCs, providing multiple 32-bit counter/timer channels and digital input/output lines with programmable features. Typical applications include frequency measurement, pulse width modulation, event counting, position tracking, and digital signal control in automated test equipment, process control, and embedded system environments.
Accessories
Requires PCI slot in host PC; no separate chassis or backplane needed. Interfaces include: One 50-pin micro ribbon connector supporting up to 32 digital I/O lines and counter/timer signals; provides 24 TTL-compatible digital I/O lines in groups of 8; onboard counter/timers accessed via digital I/O connector; uses 16-bit PCI interface through standard edge connector. Includes coaxial input for pulse input and external clock.
Interfaces
PCI 32-bit bus connector, eight 16-bit counter/timers configurable for event counting, frequency measurement, rate generation, one-shot and repetitive pulses, four 24-bit interval timers with interrupt, four 8-bit digital I/O ports programmable as input or output, digital outputs drive solid-state relays (15 mA), change-on-interrupt capability on one 8-bit digital port, connectors configured for PCI standard edge card slot interface, digital lines in 8-bit ports, no separate analog inputs or outputs. Physical interface is PCI bus edge card with standard pinout and form factor compatible with PCI local bus slots.
Specifications
PCI-based data acquisition module featuring counter/timer functionality with high resolution capability for event counting, frequency, period, and pulse width measurement. Offers programmable digital I/O channels with configurable levels and directions, supporting both input and output operations. Compatible with standard data acquisition systems and industrial control environments. Provides real-time control capabilities with interrupt handling for time-critical applications. Suitable for process monitoring, event counting, frequency analysis, and precise timing control in automated test equipment, laboratory instrumentation, and industrial automation systems.
