Chapter 1 Introduction The PXI chassis has the Real-Time System Integration (RTSI) bus to easily synchronize several measurement functions to a common trigger or timing event. The RTSI bus is implemented on the PXI trigger bus on the PXI backplane. The RTSI bus can route timing and trigger signals between as many as seven PXI devices in your system. Refer to Appendix A, Specifications, for detailed specifications of the RIO device. Using PXI with CompactPCI Using PXI compatible products wit

Chapter 1 Introduction User-Defined I/O Resources With the RIO device, you can define both the combination of I/O resources and the I/O resources themselves. You can also create new building blocks on top of fixed I/O resources. For example, one application might require an event counter that increments when a rising edge appears on any of three digital input lines. Another application might require a digital line to be asserted once an analog input exceeds a programmable threshold. You can

Chapter 1 Introduction the connectivity between the bus interface and the fixed I/O, including any timing, triggering, processing, and custom I/O required by the application. Timing, triggering, processing, and custom I/O is provided by consuming logic in the FPGA. Each fixed I/O resource used by the application consumes a small portion of the FPGA logic, which is used to perform basic control of the fixed I/O resource. The bus interface also consumes a small portion of the FPGA logic to pr

Chapter 1 Introduction Counter DIO<0..7> Bus Interface PID AO0 Figure 1-3. FPGA Logic Use in an Application with Higher-Level Functions The FPGA is volatile and does not retain the VI when it is powered off. Therefore, the VI must be reloaded every time power is turned on. The VI comes from onboard flash memory or from the software over the bus interface. One advantage to using flash memory is that the VI can start executing almost immediately after power up, instead of waiting for the com

Chapter 1 Introduction FPGA Module The FPGA Module enables you to use LabVIEW to create VIs that run on the RIO device, which contains a reconfigurable FPGA. The FPGA Module includes a new function palette, which contains functions that run on the FPGA on the RIO device. These functions can control the I/O, timing, and logic of the RIO device and can generate interrupts for synchronization. The FPGA Module synthesizes a VI into a form that can be downloaded to the FPGA on the RIO device. T
