At A Glance
Application Areas
The real-time hardware based on PowerPC technology and its set of I/O interfaces make the controller board an ideal solution for developing controllers in various fields, such as drives, robotics, and aerospace. The board is used in many university laboratories.
Key Benefits
The DS1104 R&D Controller Board is a cost-effective entry-level system with I/O interfaces and a real-time processor on a single board that can be plugged directly into a PC. It upgrades your PC to a development tool for rapid control prototyping and is ideal for developing smaller control applications or for education purposes. Real-Time Interface (RTI) provides Simulink® blocks for graphical I/O configuration. The board can be installed in virtually any PC with a free PCI or PCIe slot.
Using Real-Time Interface
With Real-Time Interface (RTI), you can easily run your function models on the DS1104 R&D Controller Board. You can configure all I/O graphically, insert the blocks into a Simulink block diagram, and generate the model code via Simulink® Coder™. The real-time model is compiled, downloaded, and started automatically. This reduces the implementation time to a minimum.
