Description
The cRIO-9038 is a robust and versatile controller designed for demanding applications, featuring part numbers 783850-01 and 783850-02. This model is equipped to operate in extreme conditions with an operating temperature range of -40 to 70°C, ensuring reliable performance in harsh environments.
At the heart of the cRIO-9038 is a powerful Xilinx Kintex-7 160T FPGA, which offers ample processing capabilities for complex computations and control tasks. It is complemented by 2 GB of DDR3 memory and 8 GB of nonvolatile storage, providing substantial space for application code and data storage.
The unit is powered by an Intel Atom E3825, 1.33 GHz dual-core CPU, which balances power efficiency with computing performance. For modular expansion, it features 8 slots for C Series modules, allowing for customizable I/O options to meet specific application needs.
An exclusive feature of part number 783850-02 is its conformal coating, which offers additional protection against harsh environmental conditions, making it an ideal choice for more challenging applications.
The cRIO-9038 also includes several LED indicators for Power, Supply, Status, USER1, and FPGA1, providing at-a-glance system status information. Connectivity is ensured with 2 tri-speed RJ-45 Gigabit Ethernet ports, facilitating easy integration into existing networks and systems.
Despite its robust capabilities, the cRIO-9038 maintains a compact and manageable size, weighing in at 4 lbs and measuring 12.94 x 3.47 x 4.30 inches. It also features an RS-232 RJ-50, 10-position modular jack serial port, offering additional connectivity options for various peripherals.
Configuration and maintenance of the cRIO-9038 are streamlined through the use of the NI Measurement & Automation Explorer (MAX), a comprehensive tool that simplifies setup, configuration, and debugging.
