NI-AIM collaboration brings military PXI systems

A National Instruments product story
Edited by the Engineeringtalk editorial team Sep 22, 2009

National Instruments has announced its offering of PXI interface modules for MIL-STD-1553, ARINC 429 and AFDX military- and aerospace-avionics applications as a result of its collaboration with AIM.

By configuring, distributing and servicing PXI systems that feature AIM interfaces, NI can serve as a single point of purchase for military/aerospace customers who require avionics interfaces as part of their NI PXI-based systems.

The offering is suitable for military and aerospace design and test engineers working on advanced real-time and HIL avionics solutions.

NI is collaborating with AIM to directly offer NI customers the MIL-STD-1553, ARINC 429 and AFDX AIM avionics-interface modules for PXI.

The NI selection of AIM PXI modules includes single-, dual- and quad-channel MIL-STD-1553 interfaces; eight- and 32-channel ARINC 429 interfaces; and a dual-channel AFDX interface.

Every module features a common-core architecture, an onboard application-support processor, multiple bus-interface unit processors, generous onboard memory and an IRIG-B time-code generator/decoder to provide uniform flexibility.

All modules also offer host backplane bus-master capability and deterministic operation for advanced HIL applications.

The modules are fully compatible with NI Labview, the NI Labview Real-Time Module, NI Labwindows/CVI, C and C++.

Onboard driver software and support for databus analyser/visualiser software simplifies programming along with a common API for engineers to easily port applications between hardware platforms.
