186595A-510

Description

The Part Number 186595A-510 refers to a PXI Embedded Controller, specifically the PXI-8170 model. This embedded controller is designed for applications requiring robust processing capabilities, featuring a 450 MHz Intel Processor and is equipped with Windows NT tailored for the Japan market. Its form factor adheres to the 3U Eurocard size, making it a compact and efficient solution for integrated systems.

It runs on either Microsoft Windows 98 or Microsoft Windows NT operating systems, providing flexibility in software compatibility. The system supports essential application software like LabWindows/CVI and LabVIEW, enhancing its utility for a wide range of scientific and engineering applications. With an Intel BX chipset at its core, this controller offers reliable performance for demanding computational tasks.

The standard configuration includes a 1 ultra DMA33 hard drive, along with a variety of ports such as 1 serial port, 1 parallel port, and 1 USB port. It also features a 1.44 MB floppy drive and Super VGA with 2 MB DRA, alongside 64 MB of 100 MHz SDRAM, which can be upgraded to up to 256 MB to accommodate more demanding applications.

For integration into systems, it requires 1 system slot and 3 controller expansion slots. Its dimensions are 8.1 x 13 x 21.6 cm, and it weighs 1.1 Kg (2.4 lb), making it a lightweight and space-efficient option. The controller interfaces seamlessly with PXI-1020 and PXI-1025 chassis, ensuring compatibility with a range of system configurations.

Moreover, it offers peripheral expansion capabilities through PCI local bus and AGP, with data transfer rates of 266 Mbytes/s for AGP and 132 Mbytes for the PCI bus, facilitating high-speed data processing and expansions. Despite its obsolete status announced by National Instruments, it remains available at Apex Waves, providing a valuable option for specific legacy system requirements.
