PXI backplanes

PXI (PCI eXtensions for Instrumentation) buses from nVent are high-end solutions designed for measurement systems, automation, and test and diagnostic applications. They provide stable and fast data transmission and full compatibility with PXI and CompactPCI standards.

Their design meets the requirements of modern applications where reliability, clocking precision, and integration of multiple devices in a single platform are essential.

Key parameters of the PXI bus:

  • Board height: 3U, 64-bit
  • Number of slots: 5 to 7
  • Clock frequency:– up to 66 MHz for 5 slot configurations– 33 MHz for 6–8 slot configurations
  • Bus layout: 64-bit CompactPCI and PXI on P2 connector
  • Input voltage V(I/O): 5 V
  • System slot: on the left side
  • Compliance: fully compatible with PXI and PICMG standards

Thanks to their compatibility with the PXI platform and flexible slot configuration, PXI buses are ideal for industrial environments, research laboratories, and automatic test equipment (ATE) systems.
