China National Instruments(NI) FlexRIO FPD-Link™ Interface Module PXIe-1488 Exporter, Products

The PXIe-1488 combines the Texas Instruments Flat Panel Display Link™ (FPD-Link™) interface with the Xilinx FPGA for high-throughput vision and imaging applications. With the PXIe-1488 high-speed digital interface, you can use and test advanced driver assistance systems (ADAS), autonomous drive (AD) camera sensors, and electronic control units (ECUs). Additionally, the PXIe-1488 features FPD-Link™ serializers and deserializers with Xilinx FPGA for a high-throughput and customizable FPD-Link™ interface on PXI. The included FlexRIO driver, with LabVIEW FPGA examples, provides access and control for power-over-coax (PoC), I²C back-channel communication, and general-purpose input/output (GPIO) communication on the FPD-Link™ channels. This module is ideal for in-vehicle data logging, lab-based playback, or hardware-in-the-loop (HIL) applications. FPD-Link is a trademark of Texas Instruments.
