Description
The CompactRIO Chassis, part number 782457-01, is a high-performance computing platform designed for industrial control and monitoring applications. This chassis, known as the NI-9154, features an 8-Slot MXI-Express RIO configuration equipped with a powerful LX50 FPGA from the Virtex-5 family. The FPGA boasts an impressive capacity with 28,800 flip-flops, 28,800 6-input LUTs, 48 DSP48 slices, and 1,728 Kbits of block RAM, enabling complex and high-speed data processing and control tasks.
The chassis is compatible with the C Series modules, allowing for a flexible and customizable setup to meet various application needs. It supports up to 8 modules, providing ample space for a wide range of I/O options. For larger systems, the chassis can be daisy-chained with up to 6 chassis per chain and can support up to 8 chains per controller, offering exceptional scalability.
To maintain fast and reliable communication, the chassis features MXI-Express Support with a cable length of up to 7 meters, facilitating flexible positioning in complex installations. It operates on a power input range of 9 VDC to 30 VDC, with a power consumption of 12.0 Watts without I/O modules and 20.5 Watts with 8 I/O modules installed, making it an energy-efficient solution for many industrial environments.
The chassis is equipped with two power supply inputs, labeled Primary (V1) and Secondary (V2), and includes one MXI Express Upstream Port and one MXI Express Downstream Port for easy integration into existing systems. A notable special feature is the CMOS reset button, which provides an added layer of convenience for system maintenance and troubleshooting.
Overall, the NI-9154 CompactRIO Chassis represents a robust and versatile platform for developing advanced control, monitoring, and test systems, combining high-performance FPGA capabilities with the flexibility of
