Kintex-7 325T FPGA Processing
The PXIe-7862 uses a large Kintex-7 325T FPGA to execute application-specific acquisition, generation, processing and control logic directly in hardware. Its FPGA provides greater capacity than the Kintex-7 160T used in the PXIe-7861.
This additional capacity supports larger FPGA designs, more parallel signal-processing operations, complex custom protocols and multiple deterministic control loops within one module.
512 MB Onboard DRAM
The module includes 512 MB of onboard DRAM for data buffering, waveform storage and FPGA-based block processing. Acquired data can be stored temporarily before transfer to a PXI controller or compatible peer-to-peer module.
Onboard memory is valuable for long waveform records, high-throughput acquisition and applications where continuous host transfers are not practical.
16 Simultaneously Sampled Analog Inputs
The PXIe-7862 provides 16 analog input channels with dedicated 16-bit ADCs. All channels can acquire signals simultaneously at rates up to 1 Мвыб/с на канал.
The dedicated ADC architecture eliminates multiplexer delay between channels and enables independent timing, individual channel triggering and multirate sampling.
Programmable Analog Input Ranges
The analog inputs support programmable voltage ranges of ±1 V, ±2 V, ±5 V and ±10 V. Selecting the smallest suitable range helps improve measurement resolution for lower-amplitude signals.
The module supports differential and single-ended analog measurements, allowing the connection method to be selected according to grounding, noise and signal-source requirements.
Eight FPGA-Timed Analog Outputs
Eight 16-bit analog output channels provide update rates up to 1 Мвыб/с на канал over a ±10 V range. The outputs can generate simulated sensor signals, control voltages and synchronized test waveforms.
Direct FPGA control enables deterministic output responses based on analog measurements, digital events, custom calculations or application-specific triggers.
32 Bidirectional Digital I/O Lines
The PXIe-7862 provides 32 bidirectional digital I/O lines using 3.3 V single-ended signaling. Each line can be independently configured as an input or output in the FPGA application.
The digital channels support update intervals as short as 100 ns, corresponding to a maximum clock rate of 10 MHz. They can be used for control, triggering, monitoring and custom communication interfaces.
Independent Timing and Triggering
The PXIe-7862 allows timing and triggering functions to be created directly in FPGA hardware. Analog and digital channels can operate at different rates while maintaining deterministic synchronization.
This flexibility supports custom trigger qualification, event sequencing, pulse generation, multirate acquisition and low-latency closed-loop control.
PXI Peer-to-Peer Streaming
PXI peer-to-peer streaming enables the PXIe-7862 to transfer data directly to compatible PXI Express modules without routing every transfer through the host processor.
This capability can reduce latency and host processing requirements when integrating the module with digitizers, signal generators, FPGA modules and other high-performance PXI instruments.

LabVIEW FPGA Programming
The PXIe-7862 can be customized using the LabVIEW FPGA Module and compatible NI-RIO software. Engineers can create FPGA applications for custom measurement, waveform generation, triggering, protocol communication and control.
After compilation, the FPGA bitfile executes directly on the module, providing deterministic hardware timing without relying on the response time of the host operating system.
Connectivity and Signal Wiring
Compatible SHC68 cables and SCB-68 series connector blocks provide access to the analog and digital signals. Separate cable types are available for multifunction analog connections and high-speed digital I/O.
Use suitable shielding, grounding and cable-routing practices to minimize interference between sensitive analog measurements, digital switching signals and power wiring.
PXI Express System Integration
The PXIe-7862 requires a compatible PXI Express chassis and controller. Chassis selection should account for slot compatibility, cooling capacity, backplane bandwidth, synchronization and the power requirements of all installed modules.

Troubleshooting the PXIe-7862
The module is not detected by the system
Verify that the PXIe-7862 is installed in a compatible PXI Express slot. Check the chassis controller, PXI Platform Services and NI-RIO driver installation.
The FPGA bitfile cannot be downloaded
Confirm that the bitfile was compiled specifically for the PXIe-7862. Check that the installed LabVIEW FPGA and NI-RIO versions support the module.
Analog input measurements contain excessive noise
Check the signal grounding, input configuration, shielding and cable routing. Use the smallest appropriate voltage range and keep analog cables away from high-speed digital or power wiring.
Digital signals are not recognized correctly
Confirm that the connected device uses compatible 3.3 V logic. Check the FPGA line direction, connector pin assignment and shared digital ground.
Data transfers are slower than expected
Review DMA FIFO settings, DRAM buffering, host processing load and PXI Express bandwidth. Peer-to-peer streaming may improve performance when supported modules are used.
