NI PXI series PXIe-8840 Module for Test Measurement & Automation Systems

The NI PXIe-8840 is an embedded controller designed for PXI systems, suitable for processor - intensive, modular instrumentation, and data acquisition applications. Here is a detailed introduction:

Processor Performance: It is equipped with a 2.7 - GHz - base - frequency, 3.3 - GHz (single - core Turbo Boost mode) dual - core Intel Core i5-4400E processor. The Turbo Boost technology can greatly improve performance, which is suitable for all types of applications, and the applications do not need to be optimized for multi - core processors. It can greatly reduce the test time and is suitable for processor - intensive applications.

Memory and Storage: It has a single - channel 1600 - MHz DDR3 memory. In - ROM diagnostics are available, allowing users to quickly access the in - ROM diagnostics of the hard drive and memory without relying on external third - party tools. Users can decide whether to replace the hard drive or memory by running in - ROM diagnostics. The controller design allows users to quickly replace key components (such as hard drives and memory) in the field without affecting the warranty.

I/O Interfaces: The module integrates two 10/100/1000BASE - TX (gigabit) Ethernet ports, two USB 3.0 ports, four USB 2.0 ports, an integrated hard - drive, a serial port, a GPIB connector, a DVI - I video connector and an ExpressCard/34 slot (optional).

Software Compatibility: It runs using the NI - DAQmx driver software, which is compatible with software packages like LabVIEW, LabWindows/CVI, or Measurement Studio. Inserted LabVIEW real - time applications will continue to run whether the host PC is interrupted or rebooted.

Other Features: The NI PXIe - 8840 quad - core controller incorporates an outside SMB association for use as a trigger information, output, or watchdog timer. The outer SMB can be used to pass trigger and timing signals into and out of the PXI trigger bus in a framework. It requires 1 system slot and 3 controller expansion slots to operate. The recommended operating temperature range is 5 °C to 50 °C, and the storage temperature range is - 40 °C to 65 °C.
