NI PXI-8102

NI PXI-8102 is a PXI embedded controller, not a peripheral accessory, and NI explicitly identifies it as a PXI Controller on the firmware/support page and as part of its embedded controller offering for PXI and CompactPCI systems in the data sheet. NI positions the PXI-8101/8102 family as high-value embedded controllers for test and measurement system integration. https://www.ni.com/en/support/downloads/software-products/download.pxi-8102-firmware-and-additional-drivers.html https://www.ni.com/pdf/dspdf/en/ds-250

For compute resources, NI specifies the PXI-8102 with an Intel Celeron T3100 dual-core processor running at 1.9 GHz. The standard memory configuration is 1 GB DDR2 RAM, with support up to 4 GB. The related NI manual also notes one SO-DIMM socket, which helps clarify the memory expansion approach for the 8101/8102 controller family. https://www.ni.com/pdf/dspdf/en/ds-250 https://docs-be.ni.com/bundle/372866b/raw/resource/enus/372866b.pdf

NI documents integrated connectivity that supports standalone controller operation inside a PXI chassis: one 10/100/1000BASE-TX Gigabit Ethernet port, two Hi-Speed USB ports, DVI-I video output, one RS-232 serial port, and one parallel port. NI also lists an 80 GB or greater integrated hard drive as standard, and the related manual notes that a VGA-to-DVI-I adapter is included for VGA monitor connection. https://www.ni.com/pdf/dspdf/en/ds-250 https://docs-be.ni.com/bundle/372866b/raw/resource/enus/372866b.pdf
