such as RF testing, semiconductor testing, and 5G prototyping. Thanks to the flexibility of the PXI platform, customers can replace previous generation controllers with the PXI-8880 embedded controller and achieve up to twice the performance in their test and measurement applications.
NI has partnered with Intel to bring the server-grade processing power of Intel® Xeon® technology to the test and measurement market. The embedded controller features 8 cores, up to 24GB of DDR memory, and 24 lanes of PCI Express Gen 3 connectivity with the motherboard. This provides engineers and scientists with twice the processing power and bandwidth compared to previous-generation controllers. In addition to the controller, the new 18-slot chassis incorporates PCI Express Gen 3 technology with 8 lanes per slot to achieve a combined total system bandwidth of 24GB/s, enabling future scalability of any test and measurement system.
When combined with system design software such as LabVIEW, this next-generation PXI controller and chassis enables engineers and scientists to convert 24 GB/s test and measurement data into easily usable information.
