Controller

PXC2190

The PXC2190 PXI Express Embedded Controller is based on the 7th generation Intel® Core™ i7 processor, specifically designed for hybrid PXI Express-based test systems, providing maximum computational power for various test and measurement applications. The PXC2190 combines the 7th generation Intel® Core™ i7 processor with up to 32 GB of 2400 MHz DDR4 memory. It uses a dedicated computing engine on a single processor, allowing for the simultaneous execution of multiple independent tasks in a multitasking environment. The PXC2190 supports four-link x4 or dual-link x8 PXI Express link functionality, with a maximum system throughput of 16 GB/s over the PCI Express 3.0 bus.

The PXC2190 offers ample interface flexibility, including two DisplayPort connectors for connecting to two monitors, dual USB 3.0 connections for high-speed peripherals, dual Gigabit Ethernet ports (one for LAN connection and the other for controlling LXI instruments), four USB 2.0 ports for peripheral devices and USB instrument control, and a Micro-D GPIB connector for GPIB instrument connection, making it suitable for controlling hybrid PXI-based test systems.
