Overview
The National Instruments PXI-8106 and PXIe-8106 are high-performance
Intel Core 2 Duo processor T7400-based embedded controllers for use in
PXI or PXI Express systems, respectively. With the 2.16 GHz dual-core
processor and dual-channel 667 MHz DDR2 memory, NI 8106 controllers
are ideal for modular instrumentation and data acquisition applications.

Dual-Core Processor
NI 8106 embedded controllers include the dual-core Intel Core 2 Duo
processor T7400. Dual-core processors contain two cores, or computing
engines, in one physical package. Dual-core processors can simultaneously
execute two computing tasks, which is advantageous in multitasking
environments, such as Windows XP, where multiple applications run
simultaneously. Two applications, such as National Instruments LabVIEW
and Microsoft Excel, can each execute on a separate core at the same time,
which improves overall system performance. Multithreaded applications,
such as LabVIEW, take full advantage of dual-core processors because they
separate their tasks into independent threads. A dual-core processor can
simultaneously execute two of these threads.
up to 100 percent compared to systems and instruments running
traditional single-core processors and up to 46 percent for LabVIEW
applications compared to the NI 8105 embedded controllers and other
systems using an Intel Core Duo processor, Intel’s previous-generation
dual-core architecture. Using SYSmark benchmarking software, NI 8106
controllers demonstrate an overall performance improvement of 29 percent
compared to NI 8105 controllers.
