\section{General Description}
The 2118 BNC-TTL card is a 8hp EEM module, while the 2128 SMA-TTL card is a 4hp EEM module.
Both TTL cards add general-purpose digital I/O capabilities to carrier cards such as 1124 Kasli and 1125 Kasli-SoC.
Each card provides two banks of four digital channels each, with BNC (2118) or SMA (2128) connectors.
Each bank has individual ground isolation.
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.
Outputs tolerate short circuits indefinitely.
The card support a minimum pulse width of 3ns.

\section{Electrical Specifications}
All specifications are in $0\degree C \leq T_A \leq 70\degree C$ unless otherwise noted.
Specifications are based on the bus transceivers IC (SN74BCT25245DW\footnote{\label{transceiver}https://www.ti.com/lit/ds/symlink/sn74bct25245.pdf})
and the isolator IC (SI8651BB-B-IS1\footnote{\label{isolator}https://www.skyworksinc.com/-/media/Skyworks/SL/documents/public/data-sheets/si865x-datasheet.pdf}).

\section{Configuring IO Direction \& Termination}
The termination and IO direction can be configured by switches.
The per-channel termination and per-bank IO direction switches are found at the middle-left and middle-right of both cards respectively.
Termination switches selects the termination of each channel, between high impedence (OFF) and 50\textOmega~(ON).
IO direction switches partly decides the IO direction of each bank.
\begin{itemize}
\itemsep0em
\item Closed switch (ON) \\
Fix the corresponding bank to output. The direction cannot be changed by I\textsuperscript{2}C.
\item Opened switch (OFF) \\
Leave the direction configurable by I\textsuperscript{2}C.
\end{itemize}

\section{Example ARTIQ code}
The sections below demonstrate simple usage scenarios of the 2118 BNC-TTL/2128 SMA-TTL card with the ARTIQ control system.
They do not exhaustively demonstrate all the features of the ARTIQ system.
The full documentation for the ARTIQ software and gateware is available at \url{https://m-labs.hk}.
Timing accuracy in the examples below is well under 1 nanosecond thanks to the ARTIQ RTIO system.
\subsection{One pulse per second}
The channel should be configured as output in both the gateware and hardware.

\subsection{Morse code}
This example demonstrates some basic algorithmic features of the ARTIQ-Python language.
\inputcolorboxminted{firstline=22,lastline=39}{examples/ttl.py}
\subsection{Counting rising edges in a 1ms window}
The channel should be configured as input in both the gateware and hardware.
\inputcolorboxminted{firstline=47,lastline=52}{examples/ttl.py}
This example code uses the software counter, which has a maximum count rate of approximately 1 million events per second.
If the gateware counter is enabled on the TTL channel, it can typically count up to 125 million events per second:

\subsection{Responding to an external trigger}
One channel needs to be configured as input, and the other as output.
\inputcolorboxminted{firstline=74,lastline=80}{examples/ttl.py}
