Digital Inputs (DI) Information

  • Pull up / Pull Down Configuration for different device Versions:
    • FCS1.1, FCB1.1, and Older Versions:
      • By default all the digital inputs are pulled HIGH.
      • When nothing is connected the input will read high and can be used for open collector circuits.
    • FCS1.2, FCB1.2, and Newer Versions:
      • By default all the digital inputs are pulled LOW.  The Digital Input Pull-Up Enable pin (DI_Hi_Pull_EN) is used to configure the pull on the digital inputs.
        • For Example, in FCS 1.3, Setting PTC8 HIGH will pull up the digital inputs 1-8. Refer datasheet for more Info.
      • When nothing is connected the input will read low
  • Use Cases for Digital Inputs:
    • Digital inputs can be used for quadrature encoders or as regular digital inputs.
