Description
The National Instruments PXIe-8383MC PXI MultiComputing Remote Control Module, part number 782971-01, falls under the category of PXI Remote Controllers. This model, PXIe-8383MC, is designed to facilitate high-speed data transfer and remote control capabilities within PXI systems.
It employs a PCI Express bus through a non-transparent bridge (NTB) as its data transfer method, supporting a x8 PCI Express 2.0 link. This setup allows for data throughput rates of up to 2.7 GB/s, with an impressively low latency of just 5 µs one-way.
The module offers connectivity support for both copper and fiber cables, extending up to 100 meters. This feature ensures versatile connectivity options for various system setups. Compatibility is further enhanced by its support for the PXIe-8384 module and PCIe-8381 board, allowing for easy integration into existing systems.
Supporting various system configurations such as line, tree, and ring setups, the PXIe-8383MC module provides flexibility in system design. It requires the NI-PXImc driver, which is supported for Windows 7 and the LabVIEW Real-Time OS, ensuring smooth operation across different platforms.
This module is particularly useful in application areas such as real-time tests, hardware-in-the-loop (HIL) tests, and structural tests, offering reliable and efficient performance for demanding applications.
