The National Instruments PXI-8145 RT controller is ideal for low-cost, real-time applications. The NI PXI-8145 RT includes an installed LabVIEW Real-Time engine running on a low-power Pentium 266 MHz processor capable of executing a single PID loop at up to 6 kHz. With the nonvolatile CompactFlash memory, the controller module can withstand high vibration and shock. With the single-board architecture and low-power processor, this controller is built for embedded applications that can operate in limited space. You can download applications to the PXI-8145 RT controller using a LabVIEW Real-Time Development System that is purchased separately.
