Overview

Product overview

Key product information and technical features.

The NI-9870 adds four RS232 serial ports to a CompactRIO system. The ports are accessed directly from the FPGA for communication with serial devices.

Individual buffers on each port help save FPGA space and simplify programming. The module supports standard serial start bit, stop bit and handshaking settings and requires external power.

  • Four RS232 serial channels in an enclosed C Series module.
  • Maximum baud rate of 921.6 kbits/s.
  • RJ50 front connections with port-to-earth ground isolation.
  • Operating temperature range of -40 °C to 70 °C.
  • Individual port buffers help reduce FPGA space requirements and simplify programming.
  • Supports standard serial start bit, stop bit and handshaking settings; uses external power.
