Two applications, such as National Instruments LabVIEW and Microsoft Excel, can each execute on a separate core at the same time, which improves overall system performance. Multithreaded applications, such as NI LabVIEW, take full advantage of dual-core processors because they automatically separate their tasks into independent threads. A dual-core processor can simultaneously execute two of these threads. High Bandwidth The NI PXIe-8130 features an NVIDIA MCP55 Pro chipset. This chipset provides four x4 (“by four”) PCI Express lanes that are forwarded to the PXI chassis backplane to create four x4 PXI Express slots. Each of these slots has up to 1 GB/s of dedicated bandwidth with the overall system bandwidth of up to 4 GB/s. 40 GB PATA hard drive for extended temperature, 24/7 operation option. Contact National Instruments or visit ni.com/pxiadvisor for information on other available operating systems. 1 2 Table 1. NI PXIe-8130 Features Dual-Core Processor The NI PXIe-8130 includes the dual-core AMD Turion 64 X2 processor. Dual-core processors contain two cores, or computing engines, in one physical package. Dual-core processors can simultaneously execute two computing tasks, which is advantageous in multitasking environments, Figure 1. This NI PXIe-8130 controls an 8-slot PXI Express modular instrument and data acquisition system. High-Bandwidth, 2.3 GHz Dual-Core Embedded Controller for PXI Express Hardware Video With state-of-the-art packaging, the NI PXIe-8130 integrates the AMD Turion 64 X2 processor and all standard and extended PC I/O ports into a single unit. By integrating many I/O ports on the controller, all active slots in the chassis remain available for measurement and control modules. This rugged modular design minimizes integration issues and eliminates the need for complex cabling to daughter boards. The NI PXIe-8130 block diagram is shown in Figure 2. The NI PXIe-8130 includes an integrated ATI Radeon X300 graphics processing unit, which delivers intense, realistic 3D graphics with sharp images, fast rendering, smooth motion, and high detail, without the need for an additional video card or peripheral. This unique architecture provides balanced memory usage between graphics and the system for optimal performance. Additionally, the NI PXIe-8130 features a DVI-I video connector, compatible with digital (DVI) and analog (VGA) monitors. A DVI-I to VGA adapter is included with the controller for use with VGA monitors. Memory The NI PXIe-8130 uses dual-channel 667 MHz DDR2 SDRAM, which makes the controller ideal for data-intensive applications requiring significant analysis. The NI PXIe-8130 has two SO-DIMM sockets for the DDR2 SDRAM. 1 GB (1 x 1 GB DIMM) of RAM is standard with upgrade options to 2 GB. Extended Temperature and 24/7 Operation Option Figure 2. NI PXIe-8130 Block Diagram Peripheral I/O The NI PXIe-8130 includes high-performance peripheral I/O such as 10/100/1000BaseTX (Gigabit) Ethernet and four Hi-Speed USB ports for connection to a keyboard, a mouse, a CD-ROM/DVD-ROM drive for software installation, or other standard PC peripherals such as speakers, printers, or memory sticks. Use the IEEE 1284 ECP/EPP parallel port to connect to a wide variety of devices, including tape backup drives, printers, and scanners. An RS232 port is available for connecting to serial devices. Additionally, the NI PXIe-8130 controller includes an integrated GPIB (IEEE 488) controller, which provides control of external instrumentation, saving additional cost and a slot. ExpressCard The NI PXIe-8130 features an ExpressCard/34 slot. ExpressCard uses the PCI Express and Hi-Speed USB serial interfaces to provide up to 2.5 Gb/s of bidirectional throughput. Use the ExpressCard/34 slot to add a second Gigabit Ethernet port to your system or additional peripheral I/O such as external hard drives, RAID arrays, 802.11 wireless LAN, IEEE 1394, Bluetooth, or various memory adapters. The NI PXIe-8130 embedded controller is available in two versions to address different environmental and usage conditions. The primary difference is that the version for extended temperature and 24/7 operation uses a different hard drive, designed for both reliability in low- and high-temperature extremes and 24/7 operation. The standard version of the controllers has an operating temperature of 5 to 50 °C and a storage temperature of -40 to 65 °C. The extended temperature and 24/7 operation version has an operating temperature of 0 to 55 °C and a storage temperature of -40 to 71 °C. You can also use the extended temperature and 24/7 operation version for applications that require continuous operation for up to 24 hours/day, seven days/week because the hard drive is rated for 24/7 operation. The hard drive in the standard version of the controllers is designed to be powered on for eight hours/day, five days/week. Additionally, 24/7 operation applications may subject the hard drive to a high duty cycle (the percentage of the maximum sustained throughput of the hard drive). The hard drive in the standard version of the controllers is designed for a 20 percent duty cycle. The hard drive in the extended temperature and 24/7 operation version has a capacity of 40 GB (minimum) versus the 60 GB (minimum) hard drive used in the standard version of the controllers.
