New reconfigurable I/O devices from NI

4 April 2012 Computer/Embedded Technology

National Instruments has announced four new NI Single-Board RIO board-level embedded devices featuring a real-time processor, Spartan-6 field-programmable gate array (FPGA), analog and digital I/O and more built-in peripherals for custom embedded control and monitoring applications.

The new devices provide engineers with off-the-shelf FPGA and real-time processor technology through LabVIEW while maintaining the custom I/O often required for high-volume deployments through the option of an RIO Mezzanine Card connector. The connector provides direct access to FPGA digital input/output (DIO) lines and certain processor-specific functions for mating custom daughter cards. NI Single-Board RIO alleviates the effort of designing an entire system from scratch so designers can focus on the custom parts of their applications, such as the I/O.

With the new devices, engineers can achieve the shorter time to market of an off-the-shelf system along with the I/O customisation offered by in-house designs. The devices also feature built-in analog I/O.

The new products feature 256 or 512 MB of memory, 128 or 256 MB RAM, 16 channels of either 12- or 16-bit analog input, four channels of 12- or 16-bit analog output and various DIO options.
