Description
The CompactRIO Controllers, specifically the cRIO-9068 model, is an integrated controller and chassis system featuring an Artix-7 FPGA. This model is identified by its part numbers 782663-01 and 782663-02. It is designed to deliver high performance with its dual-core processor operating at a frequency of 667 MHz and is equipped with 512 MB of DRAM for efficient processing capabilities.
The cRIO-9068 utilizes a Zynq-7020 FPGA for flexible and powerful programming possibilities. It offers a generous 1 GB of internal storage and supports up to 8 slots for expansion modules. For connectivity, it includes two RS-232 serial ports, one RS-485 serial port, and two Ethernet ports that support 10/100/1,000 Ethernet (IEEE 802.3) for versatile networking options. Additionally, it features a USB host port for easy peripheral connections.
Designed for reliability, the cRIO-9068 comes with two power connectors to support redundant power supplies, ensuring uninterrupted operation. It accepts a primary power source through V1 input and a secondary power source through V2 input, with reverse-voltage protection for added safety. The recommended power supplies for this model are the NI PS-15 (781093-01) and NI PS-10 (782698-01), and it utilizes the NI 9979 (196939-01) for strain relief.
Software compatibility is broad, with support for NI-Industrial communications for EtherCAT and compatibility with major application development environments such as LabVIEW and LabWindows/CVI. This makes the cRIO-9068 a versatile choice for a wide range of applications, from industrial control to research and development projects.
