Description
The PXI-8156B is a part of the PXI Embedded Controllers category, identified by the part number 186190B-311 (185113H-01). This model is designed to offer flexible processor options, including a 233 MHz Intel Pentium MMX or a 333 MHz AMD-K6-2, catering to various application needs.
It comes with 32 MB SDRAM as the standard memory, which is upgradable to 256 MB. This feature ensures that the controller can handle tasks that require substantial memory resources. For those looking to expand the memory further, additional RAM options are available in 32 MB, 64 MB, and 128 MB configurations.
The PXI-8156B is compatible with PXI-1020 and PXI-1025 chassis, providing flexibility in system integration. It features a comprehensive set of ports and interfaces, including 1 GPIB, 1 Ultra DMA IDE hard drive, 1 Ethernet Port, 1 USB port, 1 1.44 MB floppy drive, 1 IEEE 1284 ECP/EPP parallel port, 2 serial ports, and PS/2 connectors. This wide range of connectivity options facilitates easy integration with various peripherals and network configurations.
For developers, the controller supports programming environments like LabVIEW and LabWindows/CVI, offering versatility in application development. Its IEEE 1284 parallel port standard ensures compatibility with various devices, while the NI-488.2M driver and IEEE 488.2 standard highlight its GPIB capability, ensuring reliable data transfer and device communication.
The system requires 1 system and 3 controller expansion slots for installation, providing ample space for additional controllers if needed. Weighing only 2.4 lb, the PXI-
