Issue Details

Does NI apply any sort of MIL-STD or DO-160 qualifications to the PXIe controllers, modules, or chassis?

Solution

NI's hardware does not aim for MIL or DO-160 compliance as a feature. Our products are evaluated to test and measurement standards (IEC 61010-1, IEC 61326-1) and to R&D performance standards (e.g. PXI iteam). Some products have been tested to some MIL and DO requirements, but not in full and not to a level where we can see we meet MIL spec or DO-160. This would require products to be designed to these as a green feature. Note that MIL and DO-160 requirements are in general more strict in environmental and shock/vibration requirements that what we typically design and declare to meet.
