Description
The Part Number 186160D-01 identifies a specific model of PXI Embedded Controllers, which is the PXI-8170. This model is powered by an Intel Processor and is designed to fit in a 3U Eurocard size slot. It is compatible with older operating systems, supporting both Microsoft Windows 98 and Microsoft Windows NT.
The PXI-8170 comes with 64 MB of 100 MHz SDRAM, which can be upgraded to a maximum of 256 MB to accommodate applications requiring more memory. For storage, it features 1 ultra DMA33 hard drive. Connectivity options include 1 serial port, 1 parallel port, and 1 USB port, allowing for versatile peripheral connections. The integrated Super VGA display includes 2 MB DRA, providing sufficient graphics support for most embedded applications.
Additional storage is provided by a 3.5 in. 1.44 MB floppy drive, a feature that, while dated, can be useful for legacy support or specific use cases requiring floppy disks. Its compact dimensions of 8.1 x 13 x 21.6 cm and a light weight of 1.1 Kg (2.4 lb) make it an efficient choice for integrating into various setups without requiring much space or causing weight concerns.
For system expansion, the PXI-8170 is compatible with chassis models PXI-1020 and PXI-1025, and supports peripheral expansion through PCI local bus and AGP (266 Mbytes/s). This allows for significant flexibility in configuring systems for a wide range of applications, from simple data acquisition to complex, multi-vendor instrumentation setups.
