Features

Modular and Flexible Design

The OP5705XG’s modular and flexible design is fully customizable to meet the most specific I/O requirements. The chassis accommodate up to eight signal conditioning and analog/digital converters modules, providing 16 analog or 32 digital channels, to support up to 128 fast analog or up to 256 discrete signals. Communication devices from third-party I/O modules are easily connected through PCIexpress expansion slots.

See Compatible I/O Boards and Accessories

Scalable Solution

The OP5705XG is a high-performance system capable of acting as a single-target system with up to 16-cores or can be linked with other systems to form a multiple-target PC cluster intended for more complex applications. The OP5705XG can also be interfaced with several powerful and compact FPGA and I/O expansion units, enabling implementation of even larger models requiring thousands of analog and digital I/O channels.
