Abstract :
The Interface Configuration Adapter (ICA) implements most process I/O interfaces through four independently configured ports. Each port is configured under software control to interface ac, dc, or digital signals. An ICA based interface board can replace a multiplicity of signal-oriented interface boards. The ICA is inherently testable.
