Description
The roboRIO is a sophisticated Embedded Controller for Robotics, designed to meet the dynamic needs of academic and industrial applications. With its part number 156069C-01L for academic hardware miscellaneous (HW Misc) category, this controller stands out for its robustness and versatility.
At the heart of the roboRIO is the powerful Xilinx Z-7020 All Programmable System on Chip (SoC), which features a Dual-core ARM Cortex-A9 processor operating at a speed of 667 MHz. This high-performance processor is complemented by 512 MB of nonvolatile memory, ensuring swift processing and ample storage for complex robotics applications.
Networking capabilities are advanced, with support for 10BaseT and 100BaseTX Ethernet, compliant with IEEE 802.3 standards. Communication rates can be set to 10 Mbps, 100 Mbps, or configured for Auto-negotiation, offering flexibility in network setup. The maximum network cabling distance supported is 100 meters per segment, facilitating extensive network configurations.
The controller is equipped with a wide array of built-in ports, including I2C, SPI, RS232, USB, Ethernet, PWM, and Relays, providing extensive connectivity options for various peripherals and devices. Furthermore, the presence of LED indicators and an onboard accelerometer enhances its functionality and usability in complex robotics projects.
For programming, the roboRIO is compatible with LabVIEW, a graphical programming platform that simplifies the development of robotics applications. This controller is available in two model numbers, with 783581-01 designated for general use and another model tailored for industrial applications, highlighting its adaptability to different environments and requirements.
