Description
The National Instruments PXIe-1078 is a state-of-the-art PXI Chassis designed for advanced testing and measurement systems. This chassis accommodates a variety of modules through its 9-slot AC Chassis, which includes a 4-slot system controller and 8 peripheral slots, enabling a flexible and expandable architecture.
It supports 3 PXI Express slots and 5 PXI hybrid compatible slots, providing users with a versatile platform that supports a wide range of modules. The backplane offers a high-speed data transfer rate of 250 MB/s in a single direction per PCI Express link, ensuring rapid data handling and processing capabilities.
The chassis includes a PCIe to PCI Translation feature, facilitated via a translation bridge, which allows for seamless integration of older PCI modules into the system. This feature ensures that users can leverage their existing investments in PXI modules.
For software compatibility, the PXIe-1078 requires PXI Platform Services 2.0 or higher, guaranteeing that the chassis operates with the latest software advancements and standards. Additionally, its timing and synchronization capabilities are precise, with a 10 MHz reference clock, +/-25 ppm accuracy, <3 ps jitter, and <100 ps slot to slot skew, ensuring synchronized measurements across all modules.
The chassis also features a Fan Speed Selector with AUTO/HIGH settings, allowing users to optimize cooling based on their specific application requirements. Weighing 16.6 lb and measuring 6.97 x 14 x 8.43 in, this chassis is both compact and lightweight, making it suitable for desktop use or integration into larger systems.
Finally, the PXIe-1078 chassis is designed to be used with various accessories, including a 240V power supply, enhancing its versatility and adaptability to different operational environments. With its comprehensive part numbers list (763068-01, 781622-01, 781482-01,
