 \section{General Description}
-The 2238 MCX-TTL card is a 4hp EEM module.
-It adds general-purpose digital I/O capabilities to carrier cards such as 1124 Kasli and 1125 Kasli-SoC.
 
-Each card provides four banks of four digital channels each, with MCX connectors, controlled through 2 EEM connectors.
+The 2238 MCX-TTL card is a 4hp EEM module. It adds general-purpose digital I/O capabilities to carrier cards such as 1124 Kasli and 1125 Kasli-SoC.
-Each EEM connector controls two banks independently.
+
-Single EEM operation is possible.
+Each card provides four banks of four digital channels each for a total of sixteen digital channels, with MCX connectors in the front panel, controlled through 2 EEM connectors. Each individual EEM connector controls two banks independently. Single EEM operation is possible. The direction (input or output) of each bank can be selected using DIP switches, and applies to all four channels of the bank.
-The direction (input or output) of each bank can be selected using DIP switches.

-Each channel supports 50\textOmega~terminations individually controllable using DIP switches.
+Each channel supports 50\textOmega~terminations individually controllable using DIP switches. This card can achieve higher speed and lower jitter than the isolated 2118/2128 BNC/SMA-TTL cards.
