Description
The technical specifications of this system present a comprehensive overview of its capabilities and compatibility. At the heart of the system is an Intel Core 2 Quad Q9100 processor, which operates at 2.26 GHz across four cores, offering robust performance for multitasking and demanding applications. This processor is supported by a 1066 GHz front-side bus, facilitating rapid data transfer between the processor and the system memory.
Regarding memory, the system is equipped with 2 GB of dual-channel 800 MHz DDR2 RAM, which provides a solid foundation for running applications efficiently. The memory architecture ensures a slot bandwidth of 132 MB/s, matched by the system’s overall bandwidth, optimizing data flow within the system.
The I/O peripherals included with this system are extensive, featuring a DVI-I (24-pin DSUB) video connector, COM1 (9-pin DSUB) for serial communication, a LAN (RJ45) port for network connectivity, a Parallel Port (36-pin champ) for legacy devices, and four USB 4-pin Series A stacked receptacles for modern peripherals. Additional ports include a Trigger (SMB), GPIB (25-pin Micro D) for instrumentation devices, and an ExpressCard/34 slot for expandability, with the ExpressCard slot offering up to 2.5 Gbit/s bi-directional throughput.
The video capabilities are powered by a Mobile Intel GM45 Express GPU, which utilizes a DVI-I video connector for connecting to displays, offering versatile video output options for various applications.
This system is compatible with a range of software, including LabVIEW, Measurement Studio, Microsoft Visual Basic, Visual C++, Visual Studio .NET, and LabWindows/CVI, making it a versatile choice for developers and engineers working across different programming environments. Furthermore, it supports the NI-DAQmx hardware driver, ensuring seamless integration with National Instruments’ data acquisition products.
Despite its obsolete status, as announced by National Instruments, this system remains available for purchase and repairs through Apex Waves, offering continued support for users who rely on this specific configuration for their operational needs.
