What is PXI ?
PCI eXtensions for Instrumentation (PXI)
It combines the high-speed PCI bus with the modular mechanical packaging of CompactPCI
Is a rugged PC-based platform that offers: high-performance Low cost deployment solution
Dedicated to measurement, control & automation systems
PXI is an open industry specification launched in 1997 by National Instruments
=> Any vendor is able to build PXI products

A standard supported by worldwide companies Today PXI is governed by the PXI Systems Alliance (PXISA)
PXISA is devoted to: Promote the standard Ensure the interoperability Maintain the PXI specification
This alliance groups more than 70 companies
