NI Products for Research


PXIE-8108

PXIE-8108PXI-7852R

PXIE-6361

NI PXIE-8108 is a high-

performance Intel Core 2 Duo

T9400-based embedded

controller for use in PXI

Express and Compact PCI

Express systems. With its 2.53

GHz dual-core processor, 800

MHz DDR2 memory, and 6

MB of L2 cache, the NI PXIe-

8108 is ideal for modular

instrumentation and data

acquisition .

25 NI Products for More Innovative Research Projects

PXIE-6361: NI X Series

multifunction data acquisition (DAQ)

devices provide a new level of

performance with the high-throughput

PCI Express bus, NI-STC3 timing

and synchronization technology, and

multi-core-optimized driver and

application software.


Analog Input (AI) 16

AI sampling rate (1-channel) 2 MS/s

Max Total AI Throughput 1 MS/s

Analog Outputs (AO) 2

Max AO Update Rate 2.86 MS/s

Digital I/O Lines 24

Max Digital I/O Rate 10 MHZ

Triggering Analog, digital


PXI-7852R I/O FPGA devices use Virtex-5

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. 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.

measurement and instrumentation,

circuits, controls, telecommunications,

and embedded/MCU experiments

• Complete integration with Multisim

for circuits and electronics

• Completely open and customizable in
