Архитектура процессора и ПЛИС

The cRIO-9067 is built around:

• 667 MHz dual-core ARM Cortex-A9 CPU
• 512 МБ ОЗУ
• 1 ГБ энергонезависимой памяти
• ПЛИС Xilinx Zynq-7020
• 8-slot CompactRIO architecture
• NI Linux Real-Time OS

The Zynq FPGA architecture supports deterministic hardware timing, FPGA-based trigger logic, high-speed digital processing, encoder handling, real-time coprocessing, and custom FPGA control logic. Because the CPU and FPGA are integrated into the same Zynq SoC architecture, the controller is suitable for embedded applications requiring tight coordination between real-time software and hardware-level FPGA execution.

Модульное расширение серии C

The cRIO-9067 supports up to 8 модулей серии NI C, allowing engineers to configure the system around application-specific signal requirements. This makes it useful for systems that require more I/O density than 4-slot CompactRIO controllers.

Основные типы модулей включают:

• Аналоговый ввод/вывод
• Цифровой ввод-вывод
• Измерение температуры
• Измерение деформации и растяжения
• Вибрация и сбор данных IEPE
• CAN связь
• Последовательная связь
• Промышленные коммуникационные интерфейсы

The controller can function as a deterministic control platform, distributed acquisition node, or embedded FPGA processing system.

Связь и промышленный дизайн

The cRIO-9067 provides multiple industrial interfaces, including Гигабитный Ethernet, USB, and serial connectivity. Distributor specifications also describe it with two tri-speed RJ-45 Gigabit Ethernet ports, one USB host port, and one RS-232 serial port.

Industrial characteristics include:

• Rugged fanless embedded design
• -20 °C to 55 °C operating range
• Защита IP40
• 9 VDC to 30 VDC input range
• Reverse-voltage protection up to 30 V DC

These features make the cRIO-9067 suitable for industrial cabinets, remote monitoring stations, test benches, machine control systems, and distributed automation installations.

Real-Time Performance and Timing

The cRIO-9067 includes an internal real-time clock with 5 ppm accuracy, helping maintain system time when the controller is powered off.

For engineering systems, the controller is typically used where deterministic control and synchronized acquisition are more important than raw CPU performance. Its FPGA layer can handle timing-critical logic, while NI Linux Real-Time manages control tasks, communication, logging, and supervisory logic.

Прикладные варианты использования

Мониторинг состояния оборудования

With vibration, temperature, and analog input C Series modules, the cRIO-9067 can be used for rotating machinery monitoring, motor diagnostics, pump monitoring, and predictive maintenance.

Distributed Measurement

The 8-slot architecture makes it useful for remote acquisition nodes that need multiple sensor types in one rugged controller.

Embedded Industrial Automation

The controller can run deterministic control logic through NI Linux Real-Time while using FPGA resources for low-latency triggering, digital timing, and custom signal handling.

Embedded Test Systems

The cRIO-9067 is suitable for embedded test stands requiring mixed-signal acquisition, serial communication, digital control, and real-time execution.

Сравнение с аналогичными моделями

Compared with cRIO-9066, the cRIO-9067 provides larger memory and storage capacity, making it more suitable for more complex embedded applications. Compared with cRIO-9068, the cRIO-9067 is better suited for standard industrial temperature environments, while the cRIO-9068 is preferred for harsher temperature conditions. Compared with newer cRIO-9057 и cRIO-9049 platforms, the cRIO-9067 uses an earlier Zynq architecture but remains practical for embedded automation, distributed acquisition, and cost-effective industrial deployment.
