4.5 Jackrabbit Function APIs
4.5.1 I/O Drivers
The Jackrabbit board contains four high-power digital output channels, two D/A converter
output channels, and one A/D converter input channel. These I/O channels can be
accessed using the functions found in the
JRIO.LIB
library.
4.5.1.1 Initialization
The function
jrioInit()
must be called before any other function from the
JRIO.LIB
library. This function initializes the digital outputs and sets up the driver for the analog
input/outputs. The digital outputs correspond to the Rabbit processor’s port E bits 0–3, and
the analog I/O uses timer B; bits 1, 2, and 4 of port D; and bits 6 and 7 of port E.
The function void
jrioInit()
initializes the I/O drivers for Jackrabbit. In particular, it
sets up parallel port D bits 1, 2, and 4 for analog output, port E bits 0–3 for digital output,
and starts up the pulse-width modulation routines for the A/D and D/A channels. Note that
these routines can consume up to 20% of the CPU’s processing power; the routines use
timer B and the B1 and B2 match registers.
4.5.1.2 Digital Output
The Jackrabbit board contains four high-power digital output drivers, HV0–HV3, on
header J4. These can be turned on and off with the following functions from the library
JRIO.LIB
.
HV0, HV1, and HV2 are open-collector sinking outputs, and are able to sink up to 1 A
(200 mA for the BL1810 and BL1820) from a 30 V source connected to the K line on
header J4. HV3 is a sourcing output that is able to source up to 500 mA (100 mA for the
BL1810 and BL1820) from a 30 V source connected to the K line.
CAUTION: Remember to cut the trace
between K and Vcc inside the outline
for header JP2 on the top side of the
Prototyping Board if you are supply-
ing K from a separate power supply.
An exacto knife, a precision grinder
tool, or a screwdriver may be used to
cut through the traces as shown in
Figure 7.
NOTE: Failure to do this could lead to
the destruction of the Rabbit 2000
microprocessor and other components
once the Jackrabbit is connected to the
Prototyping Board.
