2. Hardware Specifications
The PCIe/PXIe-6301 is one of the family of temperature input module,
which can run on PCIe, PXIe, TXI (Thuderbolt) and USB buses (coming
soon). PCIe/PXIe-6301 on different buses are shown in Table 2.

Figure 1 PCIe/PXIe-6301 System Diagram
Figure 1 shows the system diagram of the PCIe/PXIe-6301. The system
is mainly composed of ADC, DDR and FPGA control modules. The
FPGA-based driver code provides a stable and efficient PCIe / PXIe /
USB interface. PCIe/PXIe-6301 uses four ADCs at the same time. Each
ADC is responsible for the measurement of one channel (5 or 8) and
selects one of the channels through the multiplexer.
