Although the combined module AD2 offers (beside 4 analog inputs) 2
analog output channels, only 8-bit resolution of these analog outputs
can be insufficient in some precision-demanding applications. This is
why the proven analog input part (already used in AD1 and AD2 modules)
was complemented with analog output part with 12-bit
D/A converter, identical to the AO1 module. Because the AIO1
module contains only 4 output channels (compared to 8 output channels
of the AO1 module), it was possible to implement current output mode
with range 0 to 20 mA on all 4 channels. The voltage output mode
with range 0 to 10 V is also available on all 4 outputs, of
course.
