Function Modules (VPX, VME, cPCI, PCIe)

  • Reduce Size, Weight and Cost with High Funtional Density to Reduce the Number of Boards Required
  • Built in Test Monitors many parameters for each channel
  • Channels are Programmable to customize to your System Requirements 
  • Supports 3U and 6U VPX, 3U and 6U cPCI, VME and PCIe
  • Communication, I/O, Measurement and Simulation (Over 100 smart modules to choose from)

 

 

NAI offers over 100 smart, field-proven function modules covering a wide variety of I/O, Measurement and Simulation, Communications, Ethernet switch and SBC functions. With Off-the-shelf development and quick integration speed, NAI's function modules provide the ability to reconfigure and respond to changing design specifications reducing NRE charges and offering obsolescence protection all with unmatched flexibility with countless hardware & software combinations. Each smart function module has dedicated FPGAs on-board with memory map-based configurability, programmable PID loop support and health monitoring via Built-In-Test. A single API provides programmability across all leading to a more I/O-intensive, distributed, smart and total cost-effective mission system.
