Product Description

The NI PXIe-7976R is a high-performance FPGA module for the NI FlexRIO platform, designed for demanding test, measurement, and control applications. It provides a powerful, user-programmable Kintex-7 FPGA and is meant to be paired with a FlexRIO adapter module, which handles the physical I/O. This combination gives you the ability to create a custom, software-defined instrument that can handle high-speed signal processing and data transfer.

Product Specifications

The PXIe-7976R’s core specifications are centered around its FPGA and memory resources, as well as its high-speed bus interface.

• Bus Interface: PXI Express x8, meaning it can be installed in a PXI Express or PXI Express Hybrid slot. It is compliant with the PCI Express Gen2 standard.
• FPGA: Xilinx Kintex-7 410T. This is a high-performance FPGA that includes:
  • Logic Cells (LUTs): 51,840
  • DSP Slices: 1,540
  • Block RAM: 28,620 kbits
• Memory: 2 GB of onboard Dynamic RAM (DRAM), offering a theoretical maximum data rate of 10.5 GB/s. This is crucial for applications that require large buffer sizes or high-speed data streaming.
• I/O: The module features a high-density connector for a FlexRIO adapter module, providing 136 single-ended I/O lines, which can be configured as 68 differential pairs.
• Software Support: It is designed to be programmed with the NI LabVIEW FPGA Module, which allows you to program the FPGA using a graphical development environment.

Product Advantages

• Extreme Customization: The PXIe-7976R, when paired with a FlexRIO adapter module, gives you a completely reconfigurable instrument. You can implement custom signal processing, specialized triggers, or complex control algorithms directly in the FPGA, giving you hardware-speed performance for your specific application.
• High-Speed Data Transfer: The module features a PXI Express x8 interface and supports peer-to-peer streaming. This allows for direct data transfer between multiple FPGAs or other PXI Express modules at high speeds without the need to send data through the host processor, which is essential for computationally intensive tasks.
• High-Performance Processing: With the powerful Kintex-7 FPGA and a large amount of onboard DRAM, the PXIe-7976R can handle advanced signal processing and data buffering for applications that require high throughput and low latency.
• Modular and Scalable: The PXI platform provides a robust ecosystem for building large, synchronized systems. You can combine multiple PXIe-7976R modules in a single chassis to scale your FPGA resources for highly complex applications.

Product Applications

The PXIe-7976R is a powerful tool for a variety of advanced, high-demand applications.

• Wireless Prototyping: Ideal for developing and testing custom wireless communication protocols, as its high-speed I/O and FPGA resources are perfect for real-time signal generation and analysis.
• Aerospace and Defense: Used in signal intelligence, electronic warfare, and hardware-in-the-loop (HIL) simulation for systems like radar and avionics.
• Scientific Research: Perfect for experiments in physics and advanced materials science that require high-speed data acquisition and custom, real-time signal processing.
• Semiconductor Test: Enables the creation of custom, high-speed digital test patterns and protocols for characterization and validation of semiconductor devices.

Precautions

To ensure the longevity and proper operation of the PXIe-7976R, it’s essential to observe the following precautions:

• ESD Precautions: This module contains sensitive electronic components. Always handle the device in a static-safe environment and use an anti-static wrist strap to prevent damage from electrostatic discharge.
• Chassis Compatibility: The PXIe-7976R is a PXI Express module and must be installed in a compatible PXI Express or PXI Express Hybrid slot in a PXI chassis that provides adequate power and cooling.
• Not Hot-Swappable: Never install or remove the PXIe-7976R or its associated FlexRIO adapter module while the PXI chassis is powered on. This can cause permanent damage to the hardware.
• Software Installation: Ensure that all necessary software, including NI LabVIEW and the NI LabVIEW FPGA Module, is installed before installing the hardware. This ensures the system correctly recognizes and communicates with the module.
