National Instruments PXI-8106 PXI Controller
Featured with an Intel Core 2 Duo processor T7400 (2.16 GHz dual-core), Mobile Intel 945GM Express chipset, and Intel GMA 950 graphics media accelerator, the National Instruments PXI-8106 (Part Numbers: 779886-01, 779886-00, 779887-00, 779887-01) is an Embedded Controller for PXI systems. This Controller has all standard and extended PC I/O ports in one unit. With several I/O ports available on the PXI-8106, almost all active slots on the chassis remain available for control and measurement modules. The device is equipped with a maximum system/slot bandwidth of 132 Mb per second, and a 4 Mb L2 cache.
This one-piece rugged Controller helps minimize integration related issues and eliminates the requirement for complicated cabling to daughter boards. The NI PXI-8106 Embedded Controller comes equipped with four Hi-Speed USB ports (for connecting a mouse or a keyboard), one CD-ROM/DVD-ROM drive (for OS or other software installation), and one IEEE 1284 ECP/EPP (to connect to a broad range of devices such as printers, scanners, and tape backup drives). In addition, the PXI-8106 Controller has an RS232 port available for coupling to serial devices. This Embedded Controller comes equipped with an integrated GPIB (IEEE 488) controller for the controlling of external instrumentation.
The NI PXI-8106 operates using the NI-DAQmx driver hardware in conjunction with application development environments such as LabWindows/CVI, LabVIEW, and Measurement Studio. The device is also compatible with the NI-VISA software which is an API used for communicating and controlling instruments such as Serial, PXI, USB, GPIB among many others.
For optimal video performance, the NI PXI-8106 features an Intel GMA 950 graphics media accelerator- a unique arrangement that provides optimized memory resources usage between the system and the graphics for smooth performance. Additionally, there is a DVI-I video connector provided, which is compatible with analog VGA and digital DVI. Users with analog monitors can utilize the DVI-I to VGA adapter, which can be purchased separately as an accessory. The instrument has a weight of 2.1 lbs., and the dimensions: 3.2 x 5.1 x 8.5 in.
PXI-8106 Obsolete Status has been announced by National Instruments, but the PXI Controller will still be available for purchase and repairs by Apex Waves.
