Description
The PXI-8106 is a robust embedded controller designed for versatile use, powered by an Intel Core 2 Duo T7400 processor which clocks in at 2.16 GHz and is dual-core, ensuring efficient multitasking and processing capabilities. It is built on the Mobile Intel 945GM Express chipset, providing a solid foundation for performance and functionality.
This model boasts Intel GMA 950 graphics media accelerator for handling graphics-intensive applications with ease. Its system/slot bandwidth can reach up to 132 Mb/s, facilitating quick data transfer and communication between components. Additionally, it comes equipped with a generous 4 Mb L2 cache, enhancing the processor’s ability to quickly access data.
Connectivity is a strong point for the PXI-8106, offering four Hi-Speed USB ports for connecting a wide range of peripherals. It also includes a CD-ROM/DVD-ROM drive for media playback and data retrieval, alongside a parallel port (one IEEE 1284 ECP/EPP) and a serial port (one RS232 port) for legacy device compatibility.
An integrated GPIB controller (IEEE 488) is part of the package, making this model suitable for instrumentation and automation tasks requiring GPIB communication. Software compatibility is broad, supporting NI-DAQmx, LabWindows/CVI, LabVIEW, Measurement Studio, and NI-VISA, which ensures a wide range of applications can be developed and deployed on this platform.
For video output, it offers DVI-I connectivity, compatible with both analog VGA and digital DVI, providing flexibility for monitor connections. Despite its powerful features, the PXI-8106 maintains a lightweight profile at just 2.1 lbs. and compact dimensions of 3.2 x 5.1 x 8.5 inches, making it an ideal choice for setups where space is at a premium.
