NI sbRIO-96xx Selection Guide
Overview and Applications
NI Single-Board RIO devices are designed to be easily embedded in
high-volume applications that require flexibility, high performance, and
reliability. NI sbRIO-96xx devices feature an industrial Freescale MPC5200
real-time processor with speeds up to 400 MHz for deterministic real-time
applications. The real-time processor is combined via a high-speed internal
PCI bus with an onboard reconfigurable Xilinx Spartan-3 field-programmable
gate array (FPGA). The FPGA is connected directly to all onboard 3.3 V
digital I/O. Each onboard analog and digital I/O module has a dedicated
connection to the FPGA as well.
All sbRIO-96xx devices contain 110 bidirectional digital lines. You can
select an NI Single-Board RIO device that includes up to 32 analog
inputs, four analog outputs, and 32 industrial 24 V digital inputs and
digital outputs. In addition to the built-in I/O capabilities, each NI Single-
Board RIO device has three connectors for adding board-only versions of
NI, third-party, or custom C Series I/O modules.
The sbRIO-96xx devices accept a 19 to 30 VDC power supply and can
operate within a -20 to 55 °C temperature range. With the 10/100 Mb/s
Ethernet and serial ports, you can communicate with external devices
and systems via TCP/IP, UDP, Modbus/TCP, and serial protocols. The
built-in real-time controller also features Web (HTTP) and file (FTP) servers.
Embedded Software
The sbRIO-96xx devices are programmed using the NI LabVIEW graphical
programming language. The real-time processor runs the LabVIEW
Real-Time Module on the Wind River VxWorks real-time operating
system (RTOS) for extreme reliability and determinism. You can integrate
your C code libraries within LabVIEW Real-Time.
In addition, you can quickly program the onboard reconfigurable FPGA
on sbRIO-96xx devices using the LabVIEW FPGA Module for high-speed
control, custom I/O timing, and inline signal processing. LabVIEW contains
built-in drivers and APIs for handling DMA or interrupt request (IRQ)-
based data transfer between the FPGA and real-time processor. You can
reuse your existing hardware description language (HDL) libraries and
intellectual property (IP) blocks within LabVIEW FPGA.
