Description
The product with the Part Number 152673B-02L falls under the category of Single-Board RIO Digital devices. This particular model, identified as sbRIO-9606, is engineered to leverage the robust capabilities of the Xilinx Spartan-6 LX45 FPGA processor/FPGA. It is equipped with 512 MB of nonvolatile memory, ensuring ample space for storing critical data and applications.
One of the standout features of this model is its support for a Mezzanine Card Connector, indicating compatibility with RMC (Reconfigurable Mezzanine Card) support. This enhances the device’s versatility and expandability. Furthermore, the sbRIO-9606 boasts an impressive 96 digital I/O lines, all operating at 3.3 V, which allows for extensive interfacing with a wide range of sensors, actuators, and other digital devices.
For power distribution, the device includes 6 power pins on the RMC, and each digital I/O channel can handle a load capacity of 3 mA DC. Connectivity options are robust, featuring an RS-232 Serial IDC Header for serial communication and CAN IDC Header Pins marked as CAN_L (Low) and CAN_H (High) for CAN bus applications. Additionally, the device supports USB 2.0 Mass-Storage Devices, enhancing its utility for data logging and firmware updates.
The sbRIO-9606 requires an external DC power supply to operate and is designed for use in Measurement Category I Voltages environments. Despite being announced as obsolete by National Instruments, this highly capable and versatile device is available for purchase and repairs through Apex Waves, ensuring continued availability for projects requiring a reliable and efficient Single-Board RIO solution.
