The NI PXIe-8130 is a high-performance and high-bandwidth AMD Turion 64 X2 processor-based embedded controller for use in PXI Express systems. With the 2.3 GHz dual-core processor, dual-channel 667 MHz DDR2 memory, and 800 MHz HyperTransport link, NI PXIe-8130 controllers are ideal for modular instrumentation and data acquisition applications.

Dual-Core Processor
The NI PXIe-8130 embedded controller includes the dual-core AMD Turion 64 X2 processor. Dual-core processors contain two cores, or computing engines, in one physical package. They can simultaneously execute two computing tasks, which is advantageous in multitasking environments such as Windows XP, where multiple applications run simultaneously. Two applications, such as NI LabVIEW and Microsoft Excel, can each execute on a separate core at the same time, which improves the overall system performance.

High Bandwidth
This embedded controller features an nVidia MCP55 Pro chipset that is connected to the AMD processor via an 800 MHz HyperTransport link. This chipset provides four x4 PCI Express lanes that are forwarded to the PXI chassis backplane to create four x4 PXI Express slots. Each of these slots has up to 1 GB/s of dedicated bandwidth with the overall system bandwidth of 4 GB/s.
