PXI in Instrumentation MEN CompactPCI Desktop PC packaging is not always suited to the demanding industrial environments envisioned for new instrument designs. PCs were not designed for industrial environments, and therefore do not provide the connectivity, cooling support, EMI resistance, and the slot capacity needed for many high-performance instrumentation systems. To solve these problems, the PXI standard (PCI eXtensions for Instrumentation) was developed in 1998 defining additional trigger lines on top of the CompactPCI standard. In fact, most PXI products are fully interoperable with CompactPCI products. In development and bench top instrument applications, the most economical way to use PXI instruments is with a desktop PC for control and a host-to-slave link for connection to the PXI modules. For many other applications, the PXI instruments will ultimately reside in a rack with other equipment such as on a factory floor or remote site or where portable operation is desired. In these settings the use of desktop PCs is not feasible and an embedded PC must be used. A monitor and keyboard may be attached to the controller for development or debugging and then removed or replaced with a LAN connection for later use. This configuration is somewhat higher in cost but allows the highest flexibility in operational setting and smaller system size. PXI System Controllers CompactPCI Single-Board Computers can in general be used as PXI system controllers as well. Nevertheless, many of MEN’s 6U and 3U x86 or PowerPC-based CompactPCI SBCs are equipped with additional PXI trigger lines in accordance with the PXI specification. M-Modules – I/O for PXI Systems M-Modules in PXI Systems. M-Modules are especially well suited for instrumentation tasks. The board space provided for components allows implementation of complex instrumentation functions and this also includes the best signal isolation possible, using onboard DC/DC converters. The generous space provided for dedicated connectors guarantees protection of sensitive signals. The simple and cost-effective architecture of the M-Module interface results in optimum cost-per-channel. Front Panel I/O. M-Modules offer direct front panel connection rather than requiring a separate adapter panel with flat cable connections. This provides a clean path for sensitive signals without loss of data or signal quality-using, for example, shielded D-Sub connectors and COAX cables. M-Module Interface. A fast asynchronous parallel interface offers sophisticated functions such as 32-bit data bus, burst transfers up to 100MB/s, DMA and trigger capabilities. The simple architecture of the M-Module interface allows the development of M-Modules within very short time. M-Module PXI Carrier Cards. The carrier card for 6U systems can accommodate up to four M-Modules, while the carrier cards for 3U systems come with one or two M-Module slots. System Controller Star Trigger Star Trigger Controller Organization of a PXI system Peripheral Trigger Bus 10 MHz CLK Local Bus 132 Mb/s, 33 MHz, 32-bit computer Bus Peripheral Peripheral All carrier cards support five PXI trigger lines with two onboard trigger sources (one-shot or continuous trigger; 243Hz..5.33MHz frequency). They also have flexible trigger routing: First, the onboard trigger sources may be routed to the M-Module interface or to the PXI trigger lines. Second, the PXI trigger lines may be routed to the M-Module interface trigger lines and vice versa. Prepared for Harsh Environments. In order to meet rugged mounting requirements, M-Modules can be fixed to the carrier board using four screws. Air flow and cooling are optimized in order to make M-Modules suitable for the industrial operation temperature range of -40 to +85°C. ANSI Standard. M-Modules are ANSI standard since 1997 (ANSI/VITA 12). The full specification is available from www.vita.com and www.ansi.org. PXI Software Support PXI requires that all peripheral modules have device driver software that runs in the appropriate framework. For all M-Modules MEN supports National Instrument’s LabWindows/CVI based on Windows. Support of LabWindows/CVI is included in MDIS4 (MEN Driver Interface System) for Windows. MDIS4 is a standard interface layer for most M-Modules. Together with a specific application note, the MDIS4 system package and the low-level M-Module drivers can be downloaded from MEN’s web site for free. LabWindows/CVI support is also included for M-Modules with native Windows drivers. In addition, user-ready standard IVI drivers for M-Modules are available for the instrument classes of switches, multimeters and function generators.
