The NI PXI-8196 RT controller is billed as the highest-performance real-time PXI controller available

Engineers can use two new National Instruments RT PXI embedded controllers to increase their real-time control rates and data-streaming throughput. The NI PXI-8196 RT controller is billed as the highest-performance real-time controller available. With a 2.0GHz Pentium M 760 processor, it delivers an average performance improvement of 18% compared with the previous highest-performance real-time controller.

The NI PXI-8195 RT controller features a 1.5GHz Celeron M 370 processor.

The new controllers offer reliable, deterministic operation on a rugged platform and are an execution target for programs written in National Instruments LabView Real-Time.

Engineers can use the new controllers for a wide range of applications that require real-time performance including machine control, reliable test and HIL simulation in industries such as industrial control, industrial test, ATE and military/aerospace.

Both new controllers offer gigabit Ethernet for high-speed networking of distributed systems.

Supporting a maximum of 2Gbyte of dual-channel DDR2 memory, the controllers offer double the memory capacity and performance of previous-generation real-time PXI controllers.

The new controllers also feature an optional solid-state hard drive for applications that require extreme ruggedness.

The PXI-8196 RT and PXI-8195 RT controllers incorporate an extensive set of peripherals such as a hard drive, GPIB, serial and Ethernet into a single module to ease system integration.

The new embedded controllers operate with a wide range of PXI and CompactPCI devices from both National Instruments and third-party vendors and are shipped with preinstalled NI LabView Real-Time embedded software. Request a free brochure from National Instruments....
