Description
The National Instruments PXIe-1078 is a comprehensive solution designed for a wide range of testing and measurement applications. This model boasts a 9-slot configuration, which includes 3 PXI Express slots, 5 PXI hybrid slots, and 1 slot dedicated to the system controller, providing a versatile platform for integrating a variety of modules.
It is equipped with 3 PCI Express links from the system slot, each capable of transferring data at 250 MB/s, alongside a x1 PCIe link to a PCIe to PCI translation bridge, ensuring high-speed backplane connectivity. The PXIe-1078 is compatible with PXI Express modules and PXI hybrid compatible modules, making it a flexible choice for users looking to leverage different types of modules within their systems.
The chassis is supported by the Measurement and Automation Explorer (MAX) as its system configuration tool, which simplifies the setup and management of the system. Additionally, the chassis requires PXI Platform Services 2.0 or higher for software compatibility, ensuring users have access to the latest features and updates.
Included with the PXIe-1078 are several essential accessories, such as a 240V, 10A power cord (763068-01), a 9-slot PXI Express Chassis (781622-01), a Side handle rubber kit (781482-01), a Rack Mount Kit (781634-01), and a U.S. 120 VAC Power Cord (763000-01), providing everything needed to get started right out of the box.
The system also excels in timing and synchronization, featuring a 10 MHz reference clock with an accuracy of +/-25 ppm and less than 3 ps, along with up to 100 ps slot to slot skew. This precision is critical for applications requiring synchronized measurements across multiple channels.
Overall, the National Instruments PXIe-1078 chassis is a powerful and flexible platform that meets the needs of a wide range of measurement and testing applications, offering high-speed connectivity, compatibility with a variety of modules, and precise timing and synchronization capabilities.
