2 Building High-Performance Test, Measurement and Control Systems Using PXImc Jeremy Twaits Regional Marketing Engineer Automated Test & RF National Instruments UK & Ireland

3 High Performance Applications

4 High Volume Production Test Increasing Complexity of Exponentially Mobile Devices increasing density and complexity of devices and components Significant competitive pressure to lower cost-of-test Milliseconds improvements in test time can result in significant cost saving In certain applications the test-time is computationally bound PXI platform s software-defined architecture provides excellent platform for leveraging the latest commercial technologies

5 High Performance Control Advanced Commercial and Academic Research Execute complex algorithms with floating point precision Real-time and deterministic execution with Loops rates are usually in the khz range PXI platform provides large set of modules for interfacing to various sensors and actuators.

6 Signal Intelligence/RADAR Passive RADAR Data from numerous RF signal sources Demodulate RF signal and execute triangulation algorithm with floating point precision Near real-time execution Detailed visualisation PXI platform s provides most of the required RF measurement capability and fabric for in-system high-speed data transfer

7 Real Time Test/HIL Iron Bird Aircraft Simulation Numerous PXI systems either simulating electronic subsystems and/or interfacing to sensors and actuators Real-time and deterministic execution to simulate the entire real world system Loops rates are usually in the khz range

8 Common Requirements Increased computing capability Test times are directly proportional to code execution speed Needs certain amount of computing to accomplish the goals of the application Transfer between PXI chassis Need high-bandwidth and low-latency data transfer Implicit requirement: Commercial off-the-shelf solution to keep costs low

9 Available Technologies

10 Different Processing Technologies Technology Multi-Core CPUs FPGAs Advantages Floating Point Operations Diversity of Tasks Parallelism based on N cores Direct Connection to for In-Line Processing High Parallelism High Throughput (fixed-point operations) GP-GPUs Potentially High Throughput and Parallelism (for specific tasks)

11 Comparing Buses for Data Transfer Comparison Vectors: Bandwidth: The amount of data that can be transmitted in a given time Latency: The time it takes from the first bit to travel from the transmitter to the receiver Gigabit Ethernet 10 Gigabit Ethernet PCI Express Reflective Memory Bandwidth Good (60-70 MB/s) Better ( MB/s) Best (3 GB/s) Good (170 MB/s) Latency Good (ms range) Good (ms range) Best (µs range) Best (µs range)
