Hardware Architecture
NI-7932R
The NI-7932R is an embedded FlexRIO controller with a LabVIEW Real-Time processor and
reconfigurable FPGA. The NI-7932R includes a high-speed serial interface that uses Xilinx
multi-gigabit transceiver (MGT) technology; you can reuse existing protocol IP that works with
MGTs, or you can develop your own protocol IP. Refer to Chapter 5,
, for information about interfacing with MGTs via the SFP+ ports.
Note
The NI-7932R hardware does not require calibration.
The following figure shows the NI-7932R front panel connectors. For more information about
the front panel connectors, refer to your device’s specifications document and the
FlexRIO Help
.
For information about connecting the device to a host computer, refer to the
