The PXIe-1073 from National Instruments (NI) is a high-performance PXI chassis designed for a variety of test and measurement applications. It features five slots (three hybrid slots and two PXI Express slots) and offers high-speed data transfer up to 250 MB/s via a high-bandwidth backplane and an integrated MXI-Express controller. The chassis is favored by the market for its compact, rugged package and silent operation, making it ideal for portable and desktop systems.
The PXIe-1073 chassis offers a variety of features, including power, cooling, and communication buses for the system, support for multiple instrument modules in the same housing, and different specification options ranging from 2 to 18 slots to meet different application requirements. It is suitable for high-throughput applications such as high-channel data acquisition, high-speed digital I/O, RF, high-speed image acquisition, and is compatible with PXI, PXI Express, CompactPCI, and CompactPCI Express modules. The cooling power of some chassis slots is up to 82W, and it can operate without capacity reduction at 0-55 ° C.
In terms of performance, the system bandwidth of PXIe-1073 is up to 24 GB/s, and the dedicated bandwidth of each slot is up to 8 GB/s, which makes PXIe-1073 widely used in industrial automation, test and measurement, data acquisition and other fields. In addition, the PXIe-1073 has been designed with electromagnetic compatibility and safety in mind and complies with a number of international standards, including IEC 61010-1, UL 61010-1, CSA C22.2 No. 61010-1, as well as the Electromagnetic Compatibility Directive 2014/30/EU.
National Instruments also provided detailed specifications for the PXIe-1073, including details on electrical input and output, chassis cooling, environmental adaptability, safety standards, electromagnetic compatibility, and product certification and declarations. In addition, the PXIe-1073 chassis can be remotely controlled via the MXI-Express interface, without the need for an additional remote controller PXI module, just a remote controller PCIe device for the host and an MXI cable.
