Embedded I/O modules for board-level hardware
10 June 2009
Computer/Embedded Technology
National Instruments has released a new suite of I/O modules for expanding the measurement communication capabilities of NI single-board RIO embedded control and data acquisition devices. Combining an embedded realtime processor, a reconfigurable field-programmable gate array (FPGA) and onboard analog and digital I/O on a single printed circuit board, NI single-board RIO devices are used for applications that require flexibility, high performance and reliability in a small form factor. Engineers and scientists can plug the 15 new embedded C series modules into NI single-board RIO devices to add capabilities such as high-voltage power monitoring, high-resolution analog input, strain and communications to their embedded applications.
With the new embedded C Series modules, engineers and scientists can easily add measurement quality I/O to their applications by plugging any combination of the new modules directly into the three I/O expansion ports on NI single-board RIO devices. The 15 modules include a three-channel, 300 V analog input, 16-channel analog output module; four-channel, 24-bit bridge/strain module; and four-channel, 24-bit universal module.
NI single-board RIO is one of several NI FPGA-based deployment platforms that have the NI reconfigurable I/O (RIO) architecture, which is composed of a realtime processor, FPGA and I/O modules. Because NI single-board RIO shares this architecture with the NI CompactRIO embedded control and data acquisition system, many engineers and scientists design and prototype their applications on CompactRIO and then deploy their systems on the lower-cost CompactRIO integrated system or NI single-board RIO devices.
All the NI RIO technology platforms can be programmed easily using the NI LabVIEW graphical system design platform, so no recoding is required when transitioning from prototype to deployment. By using hardware with the same RIO architecture and a single software platform throughout the design, prototype and deployment phases, engineers and scientists can accelerate their development processes and increase system reliability.
