Description:
This example uses an FPGA Extensions Bitfile to extend the DMA streaming capability of the PXIe-5840 Vector Signal Transceiver to 1.25 GHz of RF bandwidth. For DMA streaming (record and playback), 64-bit LabVIEW is highly recommended.

This package requires the following NI Hardware:
NI PXIe-5840
NI PXIe-5820

This package requires the following NI Software:
LabVIEW 2016 (32 or 64 bit) or later. 64-bit is recommended for stream to disk applications.
NI-RFSA 17.1 or later
NI-RFSG 17.1 or later
NI-Common Instrument Design Libraries
NI-FlexRIO 18.0 (For bit-packing DLL)

Release Notes:
Version 17.0 adds support for NI-RFSA/RFSG 17.1. DMA streams are buffered through onboard DRAM.

Hi Terry,

As we known that 5841 is released, if this great streaming example extend it's support to 5841 within this year?

Feifan, will you be updating the example?

[Terry_ALE]

Looks like this has been updated to work on the following hardware:

NI PXIe-5820
NI PXIe-5830
NI PXIe-5831
NI PXIe-5840
NI PXIe-5841

Hi Terry

Where we can download NI-Common Instrument Design Libraries? I can't find it in ni.com/download

I think they get installed as part of NI FlexRIO or other NI FPGA drivers.

Hi Terry

I have question regrading NI Streaming 5840 Host v17.1.0.3 by National Instruments

 Can u please guide me how we can use NI streaming 5840 host example to configure ADC and DAC of PXIe 5840 and is FPGA vi available as it is available for USRP's to configure DAC and ADC and how we can programmed the FPGA of 5840 using 5840 streaming example.

one more question did we need to use Flex Rio with PXie 5840 to programmed the FPGA of PXIe 5840??

I do not understand what you want.  The question has many parts to it.

Also, I believe this https://www.ni.com/en-us/support/downloads/drivers/download.ni-rfsa-ni-rfsg-instrument-driver-fpga-e... provides similar but updated tools.
