GETTING STARTED GUIDE

NI 6587

NI FlexRIO High-Speed Digital I/O Adapter Module

The NI 6587 is a 1 Gbps per channel high-speed, low-voltage differential signaling (LVDS)
adapter module designed to work in conjunction with your NI FlexRIO

™

 FPGA module. The

NI 6587 features 20 LVDS channels (16 data and 4 PFI).

This document contains installation instructions and signal information for the NI 6587R,
which is composed of an NI FlexRIO FPGA module and the NI 6587.

Note

 

Before configuring your NI 6587, you must install the appropriate software

and hardware. Refer to the getting started guide for your NI FlexRIO FPGA module
for installation instructions.

The following figure shows an example of a properly connected NI FlexRIO device.
