R Series Selection Guide Overview Key Features Intelligent DAQ is multifunction data acquisition that features userdefined onboard processing as well as complete flexibility of I/O timing and triggering. You can configure all device functionality by creating NI LabVIEW block diagrams with the LabVIEW FPGA Module. Your block diagram executes in hardware, giving you direct, immediate control of all I/O signals on the PXI or PCI device. With R Series and LabVIEW FPGA, you can configure user-defined hardware for a wide variety of applications requiring precise timing and control such as: • Data acquisition with flexible triggering and onboard processing • High-speed analog and discrete control loops • Pulse-width modulation (PWM) and encoder interfacing • User-defined digital communication protocols • Custom counters with up to 64-bit resolution • Hardware-timed decision making at 40 MHz Through programming in LabVIEW FPGA, you can control each of the I/O signal lines independently or synchronize a line with other channels. You can configure the digital I/O lines as custom counter/timers, PWM channels, or communication buses for user-defined protocols. All multifunction R Series devices have dedicated analog-to-digital converters/digital-to-analog converters on every analog I/O channel. This offers specialized functionality such as multirate sampling and individual channel triggering, which are beyond the capabilities of typical data acquisition hardware. You can sample every analog input channel on an R Series device simultaneously at rates up to 750 kHz, and you can program every analog output on an R Series device to update simultaneously at rates up to 1 MHz. You can also store your compiled LabVIEW FPGA application in the onboard flash memory of any R Series device and configure it for automatic loading and/or execution at power up. R Series Intelligent DAQ – Data Acquisition and Control with Onboard Processing New Virtex-5 FPGAs The new NI PXI-784xR and PXI-785xR modules use new Virtex-5 field-programmable gate arrays (FPGAs) with improved optimization capabilities that provide faster code execution and increased code capacity. These Virtex-5 FPGAs feature a new six-input lookup table (LUT) architecture for substantially improved resource utilization as well as DSP48 slices that make it possible for you to implement more complex digital signal processing at faster rates. Previous-generation Virtex-II FPGAs use four-input LUTs for up to 16 combinations of digital logic values. The new Virtex-5 FPGAs use six-input LUTs for up to 64 combinations, increasing the amount of logic that you can implement per slice. In addition, the slices themselves are placed in closer proximity to each other to reduce the propagation delay of electrons and increase overall execution rates. The single-cycle timed loop structure in LabVIEW FPGA takes full advantage of six-input LUTs for substantially improved resource utilization. This means you can optimize more LabVIEW FPGA code to fit within Virtex-5 FPGAs and perform more operations per clock cycle. Figure 1. General logic benchmarks show that Virtex-5 FPGAs offer larger sizes when compared to Virtex-II FPGAs. Figure 2. Execution speed benchmarks show that Virtex-5 FPGAs feature faster processing capabilities when compared to Virtex-II FPGAs.
