PXI (PCI eXtensions for Instrumentation)

PXI (PCI eXtensions for Instrumentation) is a modular platform for test, measurement, and automation systems. It combines the familiar PCI (Peripheral Component Interconnect) bus technology with a rugged, compact chassis, allowing engineers to build customizable setups for tasks like testing electronics or conducting experiments. PXI modules fit into the chassis's slots and can include instruments such as oscilloscopes, signal generators, and data acquisition devices. This architecture offers high performance, precise synchronization, and flexibility, making it ideal for complex testing environments in industries like aerospace, automotive, and manufacturing.
