Design of PXI for a distributed control system based on LIA

Abstract:

The design requirements of the control system for a Linear Induction Accelerator(LIA) are presented, as well as the hardware and software configuration of this system. The feature of PXI bus and the design of a DAQ/Control based on PXI are described on emphasis. Combining PXI with embedded system, the structure of LIA control system can be simplified and the performance can be improved. Relative equipments can be controlled and integrated by CVI programming. The final product has been successfully tested in the Linear Induction Accelerator.
