Real-time PXI controllers speed system response
Engineers now can create high-speed real-time systems capable of executing control loops up to 40kHz with National Instruments' fastest RT Series PXI embedded controllers to date.
Engineers now can create high-speed real-time systems capable of executing control loops up to 40kHz with National Instruments' fastest RT Series PXI embedded controllers to date - the NI 8176 RT and the NI 8175 RT.
The rugged NI 8176 RT controller boasts a 1.2GHz processor and runs Labview Real-Time control applications up to 300% faster than other real-time controllers and up to 28% faster than the PXI 8170 RT, previously NI's most powerful real-time controller.
The second new controller, the NI 8175 RT, is built on the same architecture as the NI 8176 RT and contains an 866MHz processor.
Both controllers come ready-to-run with an embedded Labview Real-Time run-time engine and feature built-in 100 BaseTX Ethernet for open network connectivity.
Engineers can create customised, integrated applications with the Labview Real-Time Module and then download the applications to either of these powerful controllers for guaranteed deterministic performance.
Because the controllers include built-in support for hardware I/O, engineers can combine them with a variety of PXI plug-in modules - from data acquisition, signal conditioning, dynamic signal acquisition, motion control, and serial and CAN connectivity - and even interface with third-party PXI/CompactPCI plug-in modules through NI-VISA software.
Because PXI systems are modular, engineers gain the flexibility to easily exchange or upgrade hardware to meet ever-changing application requirements.
The controllers' high-speed performance and extensive I/O integration easily meet the demands of sophisticated design validation applications in industries such as aerospace, defence, and automotive.
For example, engineers can use the high-speed, deterministic performance of the NI 8176 RT to create hydraulic actuator test cells or hardware-in-the-loop simulation systems.
