Description
The roboRIO Embedded Controller, manufactured by National Instruments, stands as a cornerstone in the realm of embedded computing and automation control. At the heart of this device is a Xilinx Z-7020 All Programmable SoC, which houses Dual-core ARM Cortex-A9 processors, racing at a speed of 667 MHz. This robust processing unit is complemented by 512 MB of nonvolatile memory, ensuring swift data access and storage.
Networking capabilities are advanced and versatile, featuring a Networking Interface that supports 10BaseT and 100BaseTX Ethernet, fully compatible with IEEE 802.3 standards. This interface allows for communication rates of 10 Mbps, 100 Mbps, and supports auto-negotiation, with a maximum network cabling distance of 100 meters per segment, facilitating extensive and flexible deployments.
Connectivity options are abundant, including ports for I2C, SPI, RS232, USB, Ethernet, PWM, and Relays, providing a wide array of possibilities for interfacing with various peripherals and sensors. The presence of LED Indicators and an Onboard Accelerometer further enhances the utility and user-friendliness of the roboRIO, offering immediate visual feedback and motion sensing capabilities.
For developers and engineers, the roboRIO is programmable through LabVIEW, a graphical programming platform renowned for its efficiency and ease of use in engineering applications. This feature underscores the device’s accessibility and adaptability to various project requirements.
The general use model of the roboRIO carries the part number 783581-01, while the industrial use model is designated as 784337-01. To accommodate global usage, the device offers power cord part numbers tailored for the U.S. (784611-01), Europe (784611-04), and the U.K. This attention to detail ensures that the roboRIO Embedded Controller can seamlessly
