Star trigger functionality provides a precise trigger signal to the peripheral modules by
installation of a specific star trigger controller module in the ST slot. The system timing
slot can also be used as a general PXI Express (x4 lanes) peripheral slot if star trigger
functionality is not required.

10 PXI Express hybrid peripheral slots are provided in the PXIe-62780, all connected with
PCIe x4 lanes. Each can accommodate a 3U PXI Express/CompactPCI Express/ hybrid slot
