Understanding Ground Connections

All of the grounds (D GND, AI GND, AO GND, ground lug P1, and the plated mounting holes) are connected together internally on the NI sbRIO device. The ESD protection diodes are connected to the plated mounting holes with a lower inductive path than the path to D GND, so the best ESD protection is provided by connecting the plated mounting holes and ground lug P1 to a low inductive earth ground.

Care must be taken to not connect the grounds in such a way that stray power supply currents traverse through the board. For example, when using the NI sbRIO-964x/9642XT, the D GND connections on the 24 V DIO connectors J5 and J6 should not be carrying more than a few tens of milliamps of current. Ideally, only the return current for the 24 V inputs should return through D GND on J5, and D GND on J6 should have no current flow. For the remaining connectors, a good rule of thumb is current flowing out of the connector should match current flowing in.

To verify correct grounding of the NI sbRIO device, make sure current flowing into the power connector J3 equals the current flowing out of power connector J3. These currents should be measured with a current probe after final assembly of the end product and any current differences investigated and removed.

All external power supplies should have their connected to a system ground external to the NI sbRIO device. Do not use the NI sbRIO device as the common system grounding point. Significant currents traversing through the NI sbRIO grounds can result in digital component failures. If more than 3 A flows through the common (–) pin on the J3 power connector, components start to fuse open.

Connecting the NI sbRIO Device to a Network

Use a standard Category 5 (CAT-5) or better Ethernet cable to connect the RJ-45 Ethernet port to an Ethernet network.

Caution To prevent data loss and to maintain the integrity of your Ethernet installation,

do not use a cable longer than 100 m.

If you need to build your own cable, refer to the Cabling section for more information about Ethernet cable wiring connections.

The host computer communicates with the device over a standard Ethernet connection. If the host computer is on a network, you must configure the device on the same subnet as the host computer. If neither the host computer nor the device is connected to a network, you can connect the two directly using a crossover cable.

If you want to use the device on a subnet other than the one the host computer is on, first connect the device on the same subnet as the host computer. Use DHCP to assign an IP address or reassign a static IP address for the subnet where you want it to be and physically move it to the other subnet. Refer to the Measurement & Automation Explorer Help for more information about configuring the device in Measurement & Automation Explorer (MAX).

Powering the NI sbRIO Device

The NI sbRIO device requires a power supply connected to J3. The supply voltage and current must meet the specifications in the Power

Requirements section of this document, but the actual power requirement

depends on how the device is physically configured, programmed, and used. To determine the power requirement of your application, you must measure the power consumption during execution, and add 20% to your estimates to account for transient and startup conditions.

Note Select a high-quality power supply with less than 20 mV ripple. The NI sbRIO

device has some internal power-supply filtering on the positive side, but a low-quality power supply can inject noise into the ground path, which is unfiltered.

Four elements of the NI sbRIO device can require power: NI sbRIO internal operation, including integrated analog and digital I/O; 3.3 V DIO; 5 V output; and board-only C Series modules installed on the device. Refer to the Power Requirements section for formulas and examples for calculating power requirements for different configurations and application types.

Complete the following steps to connect a power supply to the device. Refer to Figure 13 for an illustration of the power supply connection.
