Multifunction Reconfigurable I/O
PXIe, Kintex-7 160T FPGA, 16-Channel AI, 1 MS/s, PXI Multifunction Reconfigurable I/O Module - The PXIe-7861 features a user-programmable FPGA for high-performance onboard processing and direct control over I/O signals for complete flexibility of timing and synchronization. With 16 analog input channels connected directly to a Kintex-7 160T FPGA, you have ample space to design applications that require precise timing such as hardware-in-the-loop testing, custom protocol communication, sensor simulation, and high-speed control. The PXIe-7861 features a dedicated A/D converter (ADC) per channel for independent timing and triggering. This design offers multirate sampling and individual channel triggering, which are outside the capabilities of typical data acquisition hardware. The PXIe-7861 also includes peer-to-peer streaming for direct data transfer to other PXI Express modules.

Vehicle Multiprotocol Interface Device
Interface
The Vehicle Multiprotocol Interface Device excels in applications requiring real-time, high-speed manipulation of hundreds of CAN frames and signals, such as hardware-in-the-loop (HIL) simulation, rapid control prototyping, bus monitoring, automation control, and more. The NI-XNET device-driven DMA engine enables the onboard processor to move CAN frames and signals between the interface and the user program without CPU interrupts, minimizing message latency and freeing host processor time for processing complex models and applications.
