Hallo!

Can you please explain me differences between NI-PCI6518 and 6519 digital I/O cards?
In other words whats differences between "source outputs" and "sink outputs"?

Thank you

Source- current flows out of the device that provides a voltage source
Sink- current flows into the device that provides a ground
