National Instruments PXI-8110 PXI Controller

National Instruments' PXI-8110 (Part Numbers: 780691-04, 780690-00, 780690-01, 780690-02, 780690-04, 780690-33, 780691-00, 780691-01, 780691-02, 780691-33) is an advanced embedded controller made especially for PXI and CompactPCI systems. It is intended for use in high-performance modular instrumentation and data acquisition applications. It has an Intel Core 2 Quad CPU Q9100, which operates at 2.26 GHz and provides a large amount of computing power for demanding activities.

With four computing cores, the PXI-8110 outperforms dual-core controllers with comparable clock speeds by up to 80%. Because of its processing power, it's perfect for jobs involving a lot of computing, such test, measurement, and control. Featuring four Hi-Speed USB connections and a 10/100/1000BASE-TX (Gigabit) Ethernet interface, the controller combines all the necessary I/O functions into a small package. It also has typical features like DVI-I visual output, parallel port, and serial port, which guarantee compatibility with a variety of accessories and devices.

The PXI-8110 provides versatility for connecting to different instruments and extending functionality as needed due to its PCI-based GPIB controller and ExpressCard/34 expansion port. For considerable storage capacity, which is necessary for storing data gathered during testing and measurement operations, it comes with a 120 GB (or greater) hard disk.

Software tools from National Instruments, including as Measurement Studio, LabVIEW, and LabWindows/CVI, are used to further improve the controller. These potent ADEAs enable smooth NI hardware integration and control, allowing for effective data collection and analysis, when paired with hardware drivers like as NI-DAQmx.

Two gigabytes of normal capacity (2 GB extendable to four gigabytes for increased multitasking) of single-channel DDR2 RAM are among the specs of the PXI-8110. The compatibility of the product with Windows Vista Business or Windows XP Professional guarantees that a variety of software applications that are frequently utilized in industrial automation and control systems have interoperability. The PXI-8110 is a PXI 3U-sized module with the following dimensions: 8.1 cm × 13 cm × 21.6 cm (3.2 in. × 5.1 in. × 8.5 in.) and 0.914 kilogram (2.02 lb).
