What is the GPIO interface HP 82165A Message #1 Posted by Thomas Falk on 9 Nov 2004, 4:14 p.m. Hi everybody, what function does the HP 82165A GPIO interface have? By the name I would expect some General Purpose IO. Thanks for hints, Thomas

Re: What is the GPIO interface HP 82165A Message #2 Posted by Christoph Klug on 10 Nov 2004, 3:19 a.m., in response to message #1 by Thomas Falk Dear Thomas, the HP82165 supports you with an parallel 8bit or 16bit interface port plus some handshake lines. Most people use the HP82165 for interfacing a parallel Printer (centronics). Unfortunately the HP82166 is AC powered - and therefore not compatible to mobile applications. Furthermore the TRIGGER output control line is not available for this unit, needed for some advanced interface applications. Therefore I prefer the HP82166 IL-Converter : This is function compatible to the HP82165, supports also the TRIGGER output control line and needs a DC power supply. Some mobile interface applications like measurement- and datalogger applications developed from me for the HP82166 Il-Converter. More detail about this nice projects you get by searching the subjects I/O-Board and IL2000 System... Best regards from Germany - Christoph Klug
