Smaller (and cheaper) sbRIO based on Xilinx Zynq

Status: New
by Active Participant vitoi on ‎05-01-2012 03:10 AM

A smaller (and cheaper) sbRIO based on the Xilinx Zynq chip. Target size is SO-DIMM form factor (68 x 30 mm (half the area of a credit card), 200 pins). Such a board  would be OEM friendly and can be plugged into a product (rather than the current sbRIO offerings that requires the product to be developed around the sbRIO rather than the sbRIO fitting into your product). Also, a Base Board that is (only) used during development. Below is what the proposed sbRIO and Base Board would roughly look like (courtesy of Enclustra FPGA Solutions)

Add Device Pinouts Tab for R-Series Cards in MAX

Status: New
by Member Sev_K on ‎12-07-2012 04:12 PM

Currently Measurement & Automation Explorer (MAX) only shows the following information for a typical R-Series card:

It would be helpful to add a "Device Pinouts" tab that shows you all the pin assignments for your Analog and Digital IO:

Please give Labview FPGA the ability to program any FPGA.

More RAM, bigger FPGAs

Status: New
by Member Terry_ALE on ‎02-16-2011 11:22 AM

The latest Virtex-7 FPGAs have something like 20 times the computing power of the biggest FPGA supported by LabVIEW FPGA; it would be cool to be able to get those on a FlexRIO card.

 

Other companies make FPGA boards with up to 32 GB of RAM, the biggest FlexRIO has 512 MB; would be cool to have FlexRIO cards with RAM in the gigabytes.

Drivers for the Atlys Spartan 6 board

Status: New
by Member Daviddevits on ‎11-19-2012 05:04 AM

It would be nice if we could use the Atlys board with the FPGA module. As far as i see not alot FPGA boards are suported besides the RIO FPGA boards. (only spartan3e xup) Since these are outdated could drivers be developped for some low cost none NI board ? Preferably the Altys ?

Connect SMB Trigger to FPGA

Status: New
by Member rcpacini on ‎03-07-2012 08:47 AM

Currently the SMB Trigger is connected to the Real-Time controller to act as a DIO or drift correction for the RT clock. Some applications require sub-millisecond accuracy with the trigger which is not possible with the current configuration of the SMB trigger. This idea is to connect the SMB Trigger to the FPGA as a DIO line to achieve better accuracy.
