National Instruments 785621-01 CompactRIO Controller

The 785621-01 is a sophisticated embedded controller from National Instruments' cRIO-9047 product family This controller is designed to cater to the needs of embedded monitoring, control, and data-logging applications. With a base frequency of 1.6 GHz and a maximum burst frequency of 1.8 GHz, its Intel Atom E3940 quad-core processor offers strong performance even for demanding workloads. The NI Linux Real-Time 64-bit operating system, which the controller is powered by, guarantees dependable and predictable performance, which is essential for industrial applications.

Because of its Kintex-7 70T FPGA, the 785621-01 is capable of handling complex control and coprocessing tasks with substantial processing power. Custom hardware-accelerated application development is made possible by the LabVIEW FPGA Module's support for this FPGA. The controller facilitates the development of versatile applications that are adapted to specific needs by supporting a variety of programming modes, such as Real-Time (NI-DAQmx), Real-Time Scan (I/O Variables), and LabVIEW FPGA.

One important aspect of the 785621-01 CompactRIO Controller is connectivity. In order to accommodate a large variety of peripheral devices, it has several ports. With a maximum cabling distance of 100 meters per segment, the two Gigabit Ethernet ports offer quick and dependable network connectivity that complies with IEEE 802.3 standards. They can support communication rates of 10 Mb/s, 100 Mb/s, and 1000 Mb/s. The controller can be used for serial communication with industrial equipment because it has both RS-232 and RS-485 serial ports, which support maximum baud rates of 115,200 b/s and 230,400 b/s, respectively.

There are several USB connectivity options available for the 785621-01. It has three host ports: a USB 2.0 Type-A port that can handle up to 480 Mb/s of data; a USB 3.1 Gen1 Type-C port that can handle up to 5 Gb/s of data and other modes like DisplayPort; and a USB 3.1 Gen1 Type-C dual-role port that can handle up to 5 Gb/s of data and be used as both a host and a device. Programming, deploying, debugging, and adding local human-machine interfaces are all made possible by these USB ports.

For accurate, synchronized time and deterministic communications, the 785621-01 also supports Time Sensitive Networking (TSN), which further qualifies it for use in dispersed measurement systems. Its ability to log data and store and retrieve large amounts of data is improved with the addition of an SD card port.
