The NI PXI-8430/2 is a high-performance, 2-port serial interface for high-speed communication with RS232 devices at rates of up to 1 Mbit/s. High-performance RS232 interfaces are available with up to four ports. The PXI-8430/2 offers flexible baud rates for data transmissions between 57 baud and 1,000,000 baud to within 1 percent accuracy for nonstandard baud rates and 0.01 percent accuracy for standard baud rates.
With the high-performance DMA engine, you achieve high throughput with minimal CPU usage. Using memory mapping, you can connect to more communication points without resource conflicts. National Instruments also offers easy-to-use powerful software that significantly reduces your development time on systems using serial communication with the PXI-8430/2.
