Description

The PCI-8361 and PXI-8360 are integral components of the National Instruments MXI-Express Kit, each with its unique part number reflecting their design and application within the system. With a weight of 0.11 lb for the PCI-8361 and 0.55 lb for the PXI-8360, these components are relatively lightweight, contributing to the overall ease of system integration.

Their physical dimensions are compact, with the PCI-8361 measuring 2.48 x 4.76 inches and the PXI-8360 slightly larger at 3.9 x 6.3 inches, both designed to fit within the confined spaces of computer and PXI chassis slots. These devices are built to operate reliably within a temperature range of 0 to 55°C and can withstand storage temperatures ranging from –20 to 70°C for the PCI-8361 and even broader at –40 to 70°C for the PXI-8360, ensuring durability across various environmental conditions.

Furthermore, they can operate within a humidity range of 10 to 90% and can be stored in conditions with humidity ranging from 5 to 95%, indicating a high level of resilience to moisture. The PCI-8361 is designed for use with a PCI slot, while the PXI-8360 requires a PXI peripheral slot, showcasing their adaptability to different system architectures.

Both components boast a sustained throughput maximum of 100 MB/s, providing efficient data transfer rates for high-performance applications. However, it is important to note that neither the PCI-8361 nor the PXI-8360 is compatible with PXI Express Chassis, which is a crucial consideration for system compatibility and integration.
