National Instruments PXIe-8130 PXI Controller

The PXIe-8130 (Part Number: 198078E-022) is a superior and high-data transfer capacity AMD Turion 64 X2 processor-based Embedded Controller for use in PXI Express frameworks. With the 2.3 GHz double core processor, double channel 667 MHz DDR2 memory, and 800 MHz HyperTransport interface, the NI PXIe-8130 Controller is perfect for measured instrumentation and data acquisition applications.

The National Instruments PXIe-8130 Controller incorporates the double core AMD Turion 64 X2 processor. Double core processors contain two cores, or registering engines, in one physical bundle. They can at the same time execute two computing tasks, which is favorable in multitasking situations, including Windows XP, where numerous applications run at the same time. Two applications, such as NI LabVIEW and Microsoft Excel, can each execute on a different core in the meantime, which enhances the general framework execution.

This installed controller highlights a nVidia MCP55 Pro chipset that is associated with the AMD processor by means of 800 MHz HyperTransport connect. This chipset gives four x4 PCI Express paths that are sent to the PXI suspension backplane to make four x4 PXI Express slots. Every one of these slots has up to 1 GB/s of dedicated data transfer capacity with the general framework transmission capacity of 4 GB/s. To upgrade the RAM, users can expel the NI PXIe 8130 PXI Controller from the PXI frame. To optimize both the memory limit and framework execution, it is recommended to utilize a similar size and speed memory module in each of the two module slots.
