3U PXIe Embedded Controller Achieves Throughput Up To 8 GB/s

Aug. 20, 2014
3U PXI Express embedded controller, equipped with a quad-core 4th generation Intel Core i7-4700EQ processor, operates at up to 3.4 GHz clock frequency (in single-core Turbo Boost Mode).

The PXIe-3985, ADLINK’s highest performing 3U PXI Express embedded controller, is equipped with a quad-core 4th generation Intel Core i7-4700EQ processor and operates at up to 3.4 GHz clock frequency (in single-core Turbo Boost Mode). Utilizing four links x4 or two links x16 and x8 PCIe gen 2 link capability for interfacing with a PXIe chassis backplane, such as the ADLINK 3U 18-slot PXES-2780, achieves up to 8 GB/s of total system throughput. Add to this its up to 16 GB of DDR3L 1600 MHz RAM and the controller becomes ideal for high-bandwidth applications requiring intensive data analysis or processing and high-speed data streaming, such as wireless, radar, or RF testing. The embedded controller provides versatile I/O capability, including dual DisplayPort connectors with 4K 2K support, dual GbE ports, GPIB, four USB 2.0 ports, dual hi-speed USB 3.0 ports, and trigger I/O for advanced PXI trigger functions. Connection with external, standalone instruments or devices, and innovative designs—such as dual BIOS backup—reduce maintenance efforts to deliver high availability in testing systems. The PXIe-3985, supporting Windows 7 32/64-bit operating systems, provides optimal performance when installed in the PXES-2780 or compact 9-slot PXES-2590 chassis.
