National Instruments 780955-33 PXI-8101 Embedded Controller
The National Instruments 780955-33 (PXI-8101) is a 2-slot 3U PXI embedded controller designed for real-time measurement and control applications. Powered by a 2.0 GHz single-core Intel Celeron 575 processor (667 MHz front-side bus, 1 MB L2 cache), it ships standard with 1 GB of dual-channel 800 MHz DDR2 SDRAM (expandable to 4 GB via a single SO-DIMM slot). For system storage, the unit includes an 80 GB 5400 RPM SATA hard drive, with optional high-reliability solid-state storage (4 GB+) available for high-vibration environments.
Onboard I/O connectivity includes a Gigabit Ethernet (10/100/1000Base-TX) port for network deployment, two Hi-Speed USB 2.0 ports for external peripherals, and dedicated RS-232 serial and parallel ports for legacy hardware integration. An SMB front-panel connector enables watchdog timer functionality and trigger signal routing, facilitating precise hardware timing across the PXI backplane bus. The controller draws system power across the +3.3V (2.25 A typical, 3.60 A max), +5V (3.50 A typical, 6.60 A max), and +12V rails.
Optimized for deterministic execution, real-time benchmarks show single-point polling loop rates up to 112 kHz, 4-channel PID analog I/O loop rates at 28 kHz (interrupt mode), and 16-channel polling rates up to 30 kHz. Fully programmable via the LabVIEW Real-Time Module, the 1.42 lb (0.645 kg) board operates reliably across an ambient temperature range of 5°C to 50°C (withstanding operational shock up to 30 g peak), making it ideal for compact Automated Test Equipment (ATE), data acquisition, and real-time control deployments.
