Description
The National Instruments PXI-8145RT is a PXI Real-Time Embedded Controller with a 3U form factor and compatibility with the PCI bus. This robust controller requires a system slot and a controller expansion slot for installation and operates with a Pentium 266 MHz processor. It comes equipped with 32 MB of CompactFlash memory, providing reliable storage.
Connectivity options for the PXI-8145RT include one RS-232 serial port and one 10/100BaseT Ethernet port, facilitating versatile communication interfaces. The controller can handle demanding applications with a maximum PID loop frequency of 6 kHz. A notable feature is the user-programmable watchdog timer, which can be reset through a backplane trigger line, enhancing system reliability.
The device also features two user-programmable LEDs for customized indications, and it supports an array of software including the NI-DAQ driver, NI-VISA, and the LabVIEW Real-Time Module, along with the LabVIEW Professional or Full Development System. With an impressive mean time between failures (MTBF) of 281,262 hours, the PXI-8145RT promises long-term reliability. It is also lightweight, at just 0.75 lbs, and compact with dimensions that allow for easy integration into various systems.
