Description
The National Instruments cRIO-9038 is a robust, high-performance controller designed for demanding industrial applications. This model comes with two part numbers: 783850-01 for the standard version and 783850-02 for the conformal coated version, enhancing its durability in harsh environments.
At the heart of the cRIO-9038 is an Intel Atom E3825, a 1.33 GHz dual-core processor, which provides reliable performance for complex computations. The system is powered by a Xilinx Kintex-7 160T FPGA, offering flexible, customizable I/O operations and high-speed processing capabilities.
The controller is equipped with 2 GB of DDR3 memory, facilitating efficient multitasking and data handling. For storage, it features an 8 GB nonvolatile hard drive, providing ample space for software, data logging, and system updates.
With 8 I/O module slots, the cRIO-9038 offers extensive connectivity options for various sensors and actuators, making it highly adaptable to different project needs. Network communication is robust, featuring 2 tri-speed RJ-45 Gigabit Ethernet ports for fast, reliable data transfer and remote system management.
For serial communication, it includes an RS-232 port, utilizing an RJ-50, 10-position modular jack, which supports a wide range of devices and legacy equipment. The system’s status and operational health can be easily monitored through its power, status, and USER LEDs.
The cRIO-9038 is designed with practicality in mind, weighing only 4 lbs and measuring 12.94 x 3.47 x 4.30 inches in dimensions, making it compact and easy to integrate into various setups.
For software configuration, it utilizes the NI Measurement & Automation Explorer (MAX), providing a user-friendly interface for system setup and maintenance. The development of custom applications is supported by LabVIEW Real-Time and the NI-RIO Device Driver, offering a comprehensive toolkit for creating
