The NI sbRIO-9642 embedded control and acquisition device integrates a real-time processor, a user-reconfigurable field-programmable gate array (FPGA), and I/O on a single printed circuit board (PCB). It features a 400 MHz industrial processor, a 2M gate Xilinx Spartan FPGA, 110 3.3 V (5 V tolerant) digital I/O lines, 32 single-ended/16 differential 16-bit analog input channels at 250 kS/s, four 16-bit analog output channels at 100 kS/s, and 32 industrial 24 V DI/DO lines. It also has three connectors for expansion I/O using board-level NI C Series I/O modules. The sbRIO-9642 offers a -20 to 55 °C operating temperature range along with a 19 to 30 VDC power supply input range. It provides 128 MB of DRAM for embedded operation and 256 MB of nonvolatile memory for storing programs and data logging.

This device features a built-in 10/100 Mb/s Ethernet port you can use to conduct programmatic communication over the network and host built-in Web (HTTP) and file (FTP) servers. The RS232 serial port is available for controlling peripheral devices.

The sbRIO-9642 is designed to be easily embedded in high-volume applications that require flexibility, reliability, and high performance. NI Single-Board RIO is sold only in OEM quantities. NI CompactRIO systems are ideal for low to medium volume applications and rapid prototyping.
