NI PXIe-8108 RT

2.53 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo T9400 with LabVIEW Real-Time

  • Deployment platform for LabVIEW Real-Time and LabWindows™/CVI Real-Time applications
  • Real-time control of PXI Express systems
  • Up to 30 percent faster PID loop rates than the NI PXIe-8130 RT
  • 1 GB (1 x 1 GB DIMM) 800 MHz DDR2 RAM standard, 2 GB maximum
  • 1 GB/s maximum system and 250 MB/s maximum slot bandwidth
  • Integrated hard-drive, USB, GPIB, serial, Gigabit Ethernet, and other peripheral I/O

The NI PXIe-8108 RT is a high-performance Intel Core 2 Duo T9400-based embedded controller for use in PXI Express and CompactPCI Express systems. With its 2.53 GHz dual-core processor, 800 MHz DDR2 memory, and 1 GB/s total system bandwidth, the NI PXIe-8108 RT is ideal for deterministic modular instrumentation and data acquisition real-time applications. You can develop your application with the NI LabVIEW Real-Time Module or LabWindows/CVI Real-Time Module on Windows and download the program to your NI PXIe-8108 RT controller via Ethernet. The embedded code executes on a real-time OS, so you can use the powerful and flexible development tools of LabVIEW or LabWindows/CVI to build reliable, real-time solutions.

Connect to Any I/O
The modularity of PXI and open development environment of LabVIEW make it easy to integrate a variety of I/O in your application. Create a custom real-time embedded solution using an NI PXIe-8108 RT embedded controller with any number and combination of PXI/CompactPCI and PXI Express/CompactPCI Express plug-in modules.

Run Parallel Tasks on Separate Processor Cores
The LabVIEW Real-Time Module takes advantage of the dual cores on the Intel processor to increase performance and determinism for large real-time test and control applications. You can either explicitly assign certain tasks to run on specific cores of the processor or let the real-time OS manage this assignment for you.
