It serves as the local main control unit of the PXIe test system, independently running test programs, massive data computing and real-time timing control, designed for high-bandwidth data streaming, complex algorithm calculation and multi-module synchronous automated test applications.


Product Positioning

Model 782450-04 is the standard configuration version of PXIe-8135, equipped with Intel Core i7-3610QE quad-core processor with a base frequency of 2.3 GHz and single-core turbo frequency up to 3.3 GHz. It is factory configured with 4 GB DDR3 1600 MHz RAM (expandable to maximum 8 GB) and a 250 GB built-in hard drive. Connected to the chassis backplane via 4 channels of PCIe Gen2 x4 links, it delivers a maximum unidirectional system bandwidth of 8 GB/s, perfectly matching high-throughput acquisition modules including high-speed oscilloscopes, broadband RF instruments and multi-channel DAQs for real-time transmission of massive streaming data.Equipped with rich peripheral ports including dual Gigabit Ethernet, six USB interfaces, dual DisplayPort video outputs, RS232 serial port and GPIB bus, it natively supports Windows desktop OS and LabVIEW Real-Time operating systems, applicable to conventional automated test tasks as well as hard real-time closed-loop control and high-precision synchronous timing applications. Widely deployed in aerospace military RF testing, automotive EOL mass production inspection, semiconductor chip verification, power system relay protection simulation and structural multi-channel vibration acquisition systems, it acts as the core main control spare part for modular PXIe test platforms.


Hardware Architecture

The module adopts a 3U single-slot industrial reinforced PXIe card structure with intelligent temperature-controlled cooling air duct and conformal coated PCB. All ports are protected by multi-level ESD, surge and noise filter circuits, consisting of six core functional units: quad-core high-performance computing unit, DDR3 high-speed memory cache unit, local mass storage unit, PCIe Gen2 high-speed backplane bus unit, multi-type peripheral expansion unit, hardware clock & system protection unit. It supports P2P point-to-point data transmission to reduce CPU load and ensures stable high-bandwidth concurrent data transmission among multiple instruments, with industrial wide-temperature components to resist temperature fluctuation and electromagnetic interference in complex factory environments.

III. Key Features


  1. Acts as the local core main controller of PXIe test system to replace external industrial computers, independently completing the whole process of automated testing including data acquisition, algorithm calculation, judgment and report generation.
  2. High-bandwidth backplane and P2P transmission realize lossless concurrent high-speed data streaming of multiple instruments to ensure precise synchronous timing for multi-channel high-frequency test tasks.
  3. Expandable memory and local mass storage support long-term unattended test and one-click system backup & recovery to reduce on-site deployment and maintenance downtime.

  6. Hardware reset and CMOS clear functions enable rapid troubleshooting of system boot failures to improve production equipment uptime.


IV. Working Principle


After power-off installation and locking in the dedicated PXIe chassis controller slot, the module completes power-on self-test of CPU, memory, storage, PCIe bus and peripheral circuits when the chassis is powered on. The operating system boots from the built-in hard drive, and NI drivers automatically enumerate all PXIe instruments and allocate bus resources. During test execution, the controller sends trigger and acquisition commands via the high-speed backplane, receives massive measured data, caches data in RAM and archives to local hard disk, meanwhile implementing algorithm processing and result judgment. Dual Ethernet realizes isolated network access for local debugging and remote data upload. The system monitors hardware temperature, fan speed and link status in real time, triggers fault indicators for abnormal conditions, and supports hardware reset and CMOS restoration to resolve system crash and boot errors rapidly.
