Description
The PXI Embedded Controller, identified by part number 777571-22, is a comprehensive solution designed for advanced system control within a PXI framework. This particular model, the PXI-8155, is equipped with a suite of features tailored to optimize performance and flexibility in a variety of applications.
The PXI-8155 model is described as a PXI-8155/166 System Controller, running on WIN NT with LabWINDOWS/CVI FDS. It supports onboard PCI video, eliminating the need for additional video cards and simplifying setup and integration. Unlike some controllers, it does not require a separate PCI to PXI bridge, streamlining the system architecture.
With a PCI bandwidth of 132 MB/s, the controller ensures swift data transfer rates, enhancing overall system performance. It is designed to master in all 7 PXI slots, providing unparalleled control and flexibility within the PXI chassis. For storage, it includes a 1.44 MB floppy drive and a 2.5-inch hard drive with a 2 GB capacity, accommodating a wide range of data storage requirements.
The controller also boasts a comprehensive array of peripheral I/O options, including 1 Super VGA, 1 serial port, 1 IEEE 1284 parallel port, 1 USB connector, 16 MB installed EDO DRAM, and 1 PS/2 keyboard and mouse. This extensive connectivity supports a wide range of external devices and interfaces.
User convenience is further enhanced by accessible memory sockets for easy upgrades, ensuring that the controller can adapt to evolving technological demands. Additionally, the system slot control provides master/slave functionality to all slots in the PXI system, maximizing control and flexibility.
Lastly, the inclusion of both an ISA bus and PCI local bus for peripheral expansion underscores the controller’s versatility, making it suitable for a broad array of applications that require high-speed data transfer and peripheral support. The 32-bit multi-master PCI bus specification, with a throughput of 132 MB/s, further ensures that the controller can handle demanding applications with
