NI PXIe-1065 Chassis Backplane Overview

This section provides an overview of the backplane features for the NI PXIe-1065 chassis.

Interoperability with CompactPCI

The design of the NI PXIe-1065 provides you the flexibility to use the following devices in a single PXI Express chassis:

• PXI Express compatible products

• CompactPCI Express compatible 4-Link system controller products

• CompactPCI Express compatible Type-2 peripheral products

• PXI peripheral products

• Standard CompactPCI peripheral products

System Controller Slot

The system controller slot is Slot 1 of the chassis and is a 4-Link configuration system slot as defined by the CompactPCI Express and PXI Express specifications. It has three system controller expansion slots for system controller modules that are wider than one slot. These slots allow the system controller to expand to the left to prevent the system controller from using peripheral slots.

The backplane routes a x4 PCI Express link from the system controller slot to slots 7 and 8, and a x1 PCI Express link to a PCI Express to PCI Translation Bridge on the backplane. The PCI Express to PCI Translation Bridge on the backplane provides a 32-bit/33MHz PCI bus to slots 2 to 7.

The second PCI Translation Bridge provides PCI bus to slots 11, 12, 13, 15, 16, 17, and 18 (not to slot 14).

A x4 link goes to the PXI Express switch and the PCI Express connectivity of slots 9 to 14 is connected through the switch.

The system controller slot also has connectivity to some PXI features such as: PXI_CLK10, PXI Star, PXI Trigger Bus and PXI Local Bus 6.

NI PXIe-1065 User Manual 1-6 ni.com

By default, the system controller will control the power supply with the PS_ON# signals. A logic low on this line will turn the power supply on.

Note The Inhibit Mode switch on the rear of the chassis must be in the Default position

for the system controller to have control of the power supply. Refer to the Inhibit Mode

Switch section of Chapter 2, Installation and Configuration, for details about the Inhibit

Mode switch.

Hybrid Peripheral Slots

The chassis provides four hybrid peripheral slots as defined by the PXI-5 PXI Express Hardware Specification: slot 7 and slots 11–13. A hybrid

peripheral slot can accept the following peripheral modules:

• A PXI Express Peripheral with x4 or x1 PCI Express link to the system

• A CompactPCI Express Type-2 Peripheral with x4 or x1 PCI Express

• A hybrid-compatible PXI Peripheral module that has been modified by

• A CompactPCI 32-bit peripheral on the backplane’s 32-bit PCI bus.

replacing the J2 connector with an XJ4 connector installed in the upper eight rows of J2. Refer to the PXI Express Specification for details. The PXI Peripheral communicates through the backplane’s 32-bit PCI bus.

The hybrid peripheral slots provide full PXI Express functionality and 32-bit PXI functionality except for PXI Local Bus. The hybrid peripheral slot only connects to PXI Local Bus 6 left and right.

PXI Peripheral Slots

There are nine PXI peripheral slots which will accept PXI or CompactPCI peripherals: slots 2–6 and slots 15–18. These slots are on the backplane’s 32-bit PCI busses. These slots offer full PXI functionality, but have no PXI Express features. The 64-bit PCI signals on the P2 connectors are not connected.

Chapter 1 Getting Started

PXI Express Peripheral Slots

There are three PXI Express peripheral slots: slots 8–10. Slot 8 is directly connected to the system slot with a x4 PCI Express link. Slots 9 and 10 are connected to the system slot through a PCI Express switch. PXI Express peripheral slots can accept the following modules:

• A PXI Express Peripheral with x4 or x1 PCI Express link to the system slot or through a switch to the system slot.

• A CompactPCI Express Type-2 Peripheral with x4 or x1 PCI Express link to the system slot or through a switch to the system slot.

System Timing Slot

The System Timing Slot is slot 14. The system timing slot will accept the following peripheral modules:

• A PXI Express System Timing Module with x4 or x1 PCI Express link to the system slot through a PCIe switch.

• A PXI Express Peripheral with x4 or x1 PCI Express link to the system slot through a PCIe switch.

• A CompactPCI Express Type-2 Peripheral with x4 or x1 PCI Express link to the system slot through a PCIe switch.

The system timing slot has 3 dedicated differential pairs (PXIe_DSTAR) connected from the TP1 and TP2 connectors to the XP3 connector for each PXI Express peripheral or hybrid peripheral slot, as well as routed back to the XP3 connector of the system timing slot as shown in Figure 1-3. The PXIe_DSTAR pairs can be used for high-speed triggering, synchronization and clocking. Refer to the PXI Express Specification for details.

The system timing slot also has a single-ended (PXI Star) trigger connected to every slot. Refer to Figure 1-3 for details.

The system timing slot has a pin (PXI_CLK10_IN) through which a system timing module may source a 10MHz clock to which the backplane will phase-lock. Refer to the System Reference Clock section for details.

The system timing slot has a pin (PXIe_SYNC_CTRL) through which a system timing module can control the PXIe_SYNC100 timing. Refer to the PXI Express Specification and the PXIe_SYNC_CTRL section of this chapter for details.

The PXI backplane local bus is a daisy-chained bus that connects each peripheral slot with adjacent peripheral slots to the left and right, as shown in Figure 1-4.

The backplane routes the full 13-line PXI Local Bus between adjacent PXI slots (slots 2–6 and 15–18) and PXI Local Bus 6 between all other slots. Refer to Figure 1-4 for details. The left local bus 6 from slot 1 is not routed anywhere and the right local bus signals from slot 18 are not routed anywhere.

Chapter 1 Getting Started

Local bus signals may range from high-speed TTL signals to analog signals as high as 42 V.

Initialization software uses the configuration information specific to each adjacent peripheral module to evaluate local bus compatibility.

Figure 1-4. PXI Trigger Bus and Local Bus Connectivity Diagram

All slots on the same PXI bus segment share eight PXI trigger lines. You can use these trigger lines in a variety of ways. For example, you can use triggers to synchronize the operation of several different PXI peripheral modules. In other applications, one module located in the system timing slot can control carefully timed sequences of operations performed on other modules in the system. Modules can pass triggers to one another, allowing precisely timed responses to asynchronous external events the system is monitoring or controlling.

PXI_LB (12:0)

The PXI trigger lines from adjacent PXI trigger bus segments can be routed in either direction across the PXI trigger bridges through buffers. This allows you to send trigger signals to, and receive trigger signals from, every slot in the chassis. Static trigger routing (user-specified line and directional

NI PXIe-1065 User Manual 1-10 ni.com

assignments) can be configured through Measurement & Automation Explorer (MAX). Dynamic routing of triggers (automatic line assignments) is supported through certain National Instruments drivers like NI-DAQmx.

Note Although any trigger line may be routed in either direction, it cannot be routed in

more than one direction at a time.

System Reference Clock

The PXIe-1065 chassis supplies the PXI 10 MHz system clock signal (PXI_CLK10) independently driven to each peripheral slot and PXIe_CLK100 and PXIe_SYNC100 to the PXI Express slots, hybrid slots, and system timing slot.

An independent buffer (having a source impedance matched to the backplane and a skew of less than 1 ns between slots) drives PXI_CLK10 to each peripheral slot. Refer to Figure 1-5 for the routing configuration of PXI_CLK10. You can use this common reference clock signal to synchronize multiple modules in a measurement or control system.

An independent buffer drives PXIe_CLK100 to the PXI Express peripheral slots, hybrid peripheral slots, and system timing slot. Refer to Figure 1-5 for the routing configuration of PXIe_CLK100. These clocks are matched in skew to less than 100 ps. The differential pair must be terminated on the peripheral with LVPECL termination for the buffer to drive PXIe_CLK100 so that when there is no peripheral or a peripheral that does not connect to PXIe_CLK100, there is no clock being driven on the pair to that slot.

Chapter 1 Getting Started

An independent buffer drives PXIe_SYNC100 to the PXI Express peripheral slots, hybrid peripheral slots, and system timing slot. Refer to Figure 1-5 for the routing configuration of PXIe_SYNC100. The differential pair must be terminated on the peripheral with LVPECL termination for the buffer to drive PXIe_SYNC100 so that when there is no peripheral or a peripheral that does not connect to PXIe_SYNC100, there is no SYNC100 signal being driven on the pair to that slot.

signals to the slots (refer to Figure 1-5 for the distribution of PXI_CLK10, PXIe_CLK100 and PXIe_SYNC100). Refer to Appendix A,

Specifications, for the specification information for an external clock

provided on the PXI_CLK10_IN pin of the system timing slot.

You also can drive a 10MHz clock on the 10 MHz REF IN connector on the rear of the chassis. When a 10MHz clock is detected on this connector, the backplane automatically phase-locks the PXI_CLK10, PXIe_CLK100, and PXIe_SYNC100 signals to this external clock and distributes these signals to the slots (refer to Figure 1-5 for the distribution of PXI_CLK10, PXIe_CLK100 and PXIe_SYNC100). Refer to Appendix A,

Specifications, for the specification information for an external clock

provided on the 10 MHz REF IN connector on the rear panel of the chassis.

If the 10 MHz clock is present on both the PXI_CLK10_IN pin of the System Timing Slot and the 10 MHz REF IN connector on the rear of the chassis, the signal on the System Timing Slot is selected. Refer to Table 1-2 which explains how the 10 MHz clocks are selected by the backplane.

Chapter 1 Getting Started

PXIe_SYNC_CTRL

PXIe_SYNC100 is by default a 10 ns pulse synchronous to PXI_CLK10. The frequency of PXIe_SYNC100 is 10/n MHz, where n is a positive integer. The default for n is 1, giving PXIe_SYNC100 a 100 ns period. However, the backplane allows n to be programmed to other integers. For instance, setting n = 3 gives a PXIe_SYNC100 with a 300ns period while still maintaining its phase relationship to PXI_CLK10. The value for n may be set to any positive integer from 1 to 255.

The system timing slot has a control pin for PXIe_SYNC100 called PXIe_SYNC_CTRL for use when n > 1. Refer to Table B-7, XP3

Connector Pinout for the System Timing Slot, for system timing slot pinout.

Refer to Appendix A, Specifications, for the PXIe_SYNC_CTRL input specifications.

By default, a high-level detected by the backplane on the PXIe_SYNC_CTRL pin causes a synchronous restart for the PXIe_SYNC100 signal. On the next PXI_CLK10 edge the PXIe_SYNC100 signal will restart. This will allow several chassis to have their PXIe_SYNC100 in phase with each other. Refer to Figure 1-7 for timing details with this method.

Power Inhibit Switch LED Indicator

The chassis power inhibit switch has an integrated LED. This LED indicates one of four different conditions:

• If the inhibit switch LED is steady green (not flashing), the chassis is powered on and operating normally.

• If the inhibit switch LED is flashing green, the air-intake temperature has exceeded the chassis operating range.

• If the inhibit switch LED is flashing red, the power supply outputs are not within voltage regulation requirements.

• If the inhibit switch LED is steady red, the system fans or power supply fan has failed. The remaining fans will automatically be driven high.

Note If two system fans or both of the power supply fans fail the chassis will shut down

automatically, preventing the chassis and modules from damage due to overheating.

Remote Voltage Monitoring and Control

The NI PXIe-1065 chassis supports remote voltage monitoring and inhibiting through a female 9-pin D-SUB (DB-9) connector located on the rear panel. Table 2-1 shows the pinout of the 9-pin D-SUB (DB-9) connector.

Chapter 2 Installation and Configuration

Inhibit Mode Switch

On the rear panel of the chassis there is an Inhibit Mode switch. Refer to Figure 1-2, Rear View of the NI PXIe-1065 Chassis, for the location. The Inhibit Mode switch is recessed to prevent it from accidentally being switched.

The Inhibit Mode switch should be in the Default position when normal power inhibit switch functionality is desired. If the user needs to power on a chassis without a system controller installed the switch should be in the Manual position.

When the Inhibit Mode switch is set to the Manual position, the power supplies are enabled, and you can use the Inhibit signal (active low) on pin 5 of the Remote Inhibit and Voltage Monitoring connector to power off the chassis. To remotely power off the chassis, connect the Inhibit pin (pin 5) to a Logic Ground pin (pin 1 or 9). As long as this connection exists, the chassis will remain off (standby); when you remove this connection, the chassis turns on.

Note For the Remote Inhibit signal to control the On/Off (standby) state of the chassis,

the Inhibit Mode switch must be in the Manual position.

PXI_CLK10 Rear Connectors

There are two BNC connectors on the rear of the NI PXIe-1065 chassis for PXI_CLK10. The connectors are labeled IN and OUT. You can use them for supplying the backplane with PXI_CLK10 or routing the backplane’s PXI_CLK10 to another chassis. Refer to the System Reference Clock section of Chapter 1, Getting Started, for details about these signals.

PXI Express System Configuration with MAX

The PXI Platform Services software included with your chassis automatically identifies your PXI Express system components to generate a

pxiesys.ini file. You can configure your entire PXI system and

identify PXI-1 chassis through Measurement & Automation Explorer (MAX), included with your system controller. MAX creates the

pxiesys.ini and pxisys.ini file, which define your PXI system

parameters. MAX also provides an interface to route and reserve triggers so dynamic routing, through drivers such as DAQmx, avoids

Trigger Configuration in MAX

Each chassis has one or more trigger buses, each with eight lines numbered 0 through 7 that can be reserved and routed statically or dynamically. Static reservation pre-allocates a trigger line to prevent its configuration by a user program. Dynamic reservation/routing/deallocation is on the fly within a user program based upon National Instruments APIs such as NI-DAQmx. Static reservation of trigger lines can be implemented by the user in MAX through the Triggers tab. Reserved trigger lines will not be used by PXI modules dynamically configured by programs such as NI-DAQmx. This prevents the instruments from double-driving the trigger lines, possibly damaging devices in the chassis. In the default configuration, trigger lines on each bus are independent. For example, if trigger line 3 is asserted on trigger bus 0, by default it will not be automatically asserted on any other trigger bus.

NI PXIe-1065 User Manual 2-14 ni.com

Complete the following steps to reserve these trigger lines in MAX.

1. In the Configuration tree, click on the PXI chassis branch you want to configure.

2. Then, in the right-hand pane, toward the bottom, click on the Triggers tab.

3. Select which trigger lines you would like to statically reserve.

4. Click the Apply button.

PXI Trigger Bus Routing

Some National Instruments chassis, such as the PXI-1065 and the PXI-1044/1045, have the capability to route triggers from one bus to others within the same chassis using the Trigger Routing tab in MAX, as shown in Figure 2-6.

Note Selecting any non-disabled routing automatically reserves the line in all trigger

buses being routed to. If you are using NI-DAQmx, it will reserve and route trigger lines for you, so you won’t have to route trigger lines manually.

Complete the following steps to configure trigger routings in MAX.

1. In the Configuration tree, select the chassis in which you want to route trigger lines.

2. In the right-hand pane, select the Trigger Routing tab near the bottom.

3. For each trigger line, select Route Right, Route Outward From Middle, or Route Left to route triggers on that line in the described direction, or select Disabled for the default behavior with no manual routing.

4. Click the Apply button.
