31.5 Controlling External I/O in LT3000 / LT4000 / STC6000 Series

LT3000 series, LT4000 series and STC6000 series support special inputs and outputs in addition to standard I/O. These include High Speed Counter Input, Pulse Output, PWM Output, and Pulse Catch.

 

Where and how to allocate I/O terminals differs between the standard I/O and special I/O.
