RB8515 -- Clock for Delay
Purpose
Generate a clock signal for the time delay module RB8514.
Description
Module RB8515 is a clock signal generator for time delay module RB8514.
It provides fixed frequency outputs and clock outputs with programmable frequency output with programmable frequency via SMB connectors on the front panel. The module can also generate a Rulbus interrupt with a programmable frequency, but it is not made available by this driver. There are no inputs.
The following front-panel variations of this module exist:
- seven identical outputs with programmable frequency
- four different fixed-frequency output and three identical outputs with programmable frequency
The following frequencies are available.
Fixed frequencies: 100 kHz, 1 MHz, 10 MHz and 100 MHz
Programmable frequencies: 0 Hz (disabled), 100 Hz, 1 kHz, 10 kHz, 100 kHz, 1 MHz, 10 MHz and 100 MHz.
Configuration
The RB8515 clock module has no properties that are configured at production time.
Default configuration
rb8515_clock "name" { address = 0xC8 }
When the Rulbus configuration file is read, the programmable clock outputs are set to 1 kHz.
