1 Introduction
The JYTEK PXI-63980 PXI™ embedded controller, based on the Intel® Core™ i7 processor,
is specifically designed for PXIbased testing systems, providing a rugged and stable
operating environment for a wide variety of testing and measurement applications.
Combining state-of-the-art Intel® Core™ i7-2715QE 2.1 GHz processors, and up to 16 GB
of 1333 MHz DDR3 memory, the PXI-63980 utilizes four separate computing engines
on a single processor, enabling execution of four independent tasks simultaneously in a
multitasking environment.
PXI-based testing systems typically make up a PXI platform and diversified standalone
instruments for complex testing tasks. The PXI-63980 provides ample interface
choices, including GPIB, USB2.0, and USB3.0, for connecting and controlling instruments.
The PXI-63980 also provides dual Gigabit Ethernet ports, one for LAN connection and the
other for controlling LXI instruments. With flexible instrument control interfaces and
mechanical and electronic reliability, the JYTEK PXI-63980 is more than equal to the
challenges of the most demanding PXI-based testing systems
Memory addressing over 4GB is OS-dependent, such that a 32-bit operating system
may be unable to address memory space over 4GB. To fully utilize memory, 64-bit
operating systems are required.
