DESCRIPTION
The SB-36310CX is a versatile, PC/104 card which contains one to
four channels of fully independent Synchro-to-Digital or Resolver-to-
Digital (S/R-D) conversion. For each channel the conversion process
is implemented using a DDC RDC-19222S 16-bit monolithic convert-
er and a thin-film resistor network.
Each converter can be configured for a 11.8 V line-to-line
synchro/resolver, 90 V line-to-line synchro, or 2 V sin/cos signal input,
and 10-, 12-, 14-, or 16-bit resolution. The user is provided with two
operating frequency ranges. The low bandwidth card operates from
47 Hz to 5 kHz and is software programmable for bandwidths of 15
Hz or 45 Hz. The high bandwidth card operates from 360 Hz to 5 kHz
and is software programmable for bandwidths of 80 Hz or 300 Hz.
Each channel provides a separate reference input which is jumper
programmable to accept either a 26 V or a 115 V signal. A synthesized
reference and accuracy to ±1 minute is standard.
In addition to the angular position data, each channel provides a ±4 V
Velocity Output Signal, and 16-bit Discrete I/O configured with 8 bits
of input and 8 bits of output which are available for user defined func-
tions. Demo software including source code is supplied with the card.
APPLICATIONS
The SB-36310CX is designed for modern, high-performance industrial
and military control systems. Typical applications include motor control,
machine tool control, robotic, antenna and process control systems.

INTRODUCTION
Each of the four converter channels can be independently soft-
ware programmed for bandwidth and resolution. The reference
input voltage range is also selectable via jumpers for each chan-
nel. Two frequency ranges are available (see the Accuracy /
Bandwidth ordering options -XX5 or -XX6 in the Ordering
Information section):
• For the frequency ranges of 47 Hz to 5 kHz the
software programmability provides for bandwidths of 15 Hz
and 45 Hz (Low bandwidth option -XX6). (see TABLE 2B)
• For the 360 Hz to 5 kHz frequency range the corresponding
bandwidths are 80 Hz and 300 Hz (High bandwidth option -
XX5). (see TABLE 2A).
The heart of each channel is DDC’s RDC-19222S Monolithic
Resolver-to-Digital converter series. The RDC-19222S converter
adds a synthesized Reference to reduce positional error caused
by Rotor-to-Stator phase shift and offers an accuracy option
of ±1 minute.
For technical information on the RDC-19222S converter consult
the respective data sheet. Each channel of the SB-36310CX can
be configured to accept 11.8 V
L-L
synchro/resolver, 90 V
L-L
syn-
chro, or 2V single ended (sin/cos) signals. The synchro or
resolver format is programmable by placing the resistor network
into one of two socket locations for each individual channel, and
is preconfigured at the factory.
NOTE: Unused channels do not require an RDC-19222S
converter or thin-film resistor network.
The reference input can be configured to accept 115 Vrms or
26 Vrms reference input, based on the setting of two jumpers
(See FIGURE 6). In addition, each channel’s resolution can be
software programmed for 10, 12, 14, or 16 bits. (See the
RDC-19222S Series data sheet, TABLE 1).
The angular data for each channel can be Inhibited (frozen) or
Enabled. Each channel can be Inhibited (INH) independently or
all installed channels can be Inhibited simultaneously and read
in sequence. A block diagram of the SB-36310CX is shown in
FIGURE 1.
WARNING !
To prevent personal injury always remove the I/O
CONNECTOR prior to servicing the SB-36310CX.
The I/O connector may contain HIGH VOLTAGES
(115V and 90V).
These voltages may be present
even if the power to the computer is turned OFF.

TRANSFER FUNCTION
The dynamic performance of the converter can be determined
from its Transfer Function (Refer to FIGURES 2 and 3). The open
loop transfer function is as follows:
A2
Open Loop Transfer Function =
S2
(
S + 1
)
B
S
(
10B + 1
)
Exceeds tracking rate to bandwidth ratio. Selecting a bandwidth that is too
low relative to the maximum application tracking rate can create a spin-around
condition in which the converter never settles (particularly during initial power
-up.) (Refer to “Tracking/BW Relationship” table in RDC-19222S data sheet.)

SYNCHRO/RESOLVER INPUT SETTING
The input configuration for each channel on the SB-36310CX is
determined by the thin-film resistor network position on the
board. Each channel has two possible positions for the thin-film
resistor network to be installed on the board. When viewing the
card with the J1/P1, J2/P2 connectors facing down, the left hand
socket is for synchro input and the right hand socket is for
resolver input (refer to FIGURE 4).
NOTE: Channels 1, 2, and 3 have two sockets offset by
0.1”, and channel 4 has two sockets in line.
BASE ADDRESS SETTING
The Base Address of the SB-36310CX is preset at the factory to
HEX address 0330h as shown in FIGURE 5. The user may
choose from 0000h to 0FF0h in 10 HEX increments.

about the DDC-49530 and the DDC-49590 please refer to the
Thin-Film Resistor Network data sheet. The DDC-55688 can
only be placed in the resolver socket.

An excitation or reference on the primary of the synchro or
resolver is also needed to demodulate the synchro/resolver
signals. The SB-36310CX has resistors that attenuate the
reference to a level that is acceptable for the RDC-19222
converter.
For a 2 Vrms to 28 Vrms reference the jumpers should be set for
a 26 V nominal reference. For a 10 Vrms to 130 Vrms reference
the jumpers should be set for a 115 V nominal reference. Refer
to FIGURE 6 to set the jumpers.
