PXI/CompactPCI - PAC Hardware

Overview

PXI is a multivendor industry standard based on CompactPCI architecture. PXI is ideal for mid- to large-size applications because it delivers a modular PC-based platform for both National Instruments and third-party CompactPCI and PXI plug-in modules. PXI offers the widest range of I/O, including 1000 V isolated analog input, high-density digital I/O, analog and digital image acquisition devices for machine vision, and coordinated multichannel motion.

PXI is easy to use, with support for both Windows and real-time applications. For industrial applications, PXI offers extended (0 to 55 °C) operating temperatures, defined cooling (25 W per slot) and power requirements, and extended shock and vibration specifications. Defined cooling and power specifications ensure that the PXI platform supports a wide range of modular I/O. PXI is a rugged platform with integrated backplane synchronization for applications such as vision-guided motion control and high-channel, phase-synchronous measurements.
