This unit
The dSPACE DS814-09 Link Board is an interface card designed for hardware-in-the-loop (HIL) simulations and rapid control prototyping (RCP) applications. It facilitates communication between host PCs and dSPACE Expansion Boxes, enabling spatial partitioning of the Peripheral High-Speed (PHS) bus across multiple I/O boards. The DS814-09 mounts directly within an expansion box and connects to compatible host PC link boards via high-speed serial, optical, or Ethernet connections.
Technical Specifications
Model: DS814-09
Data Transfer Rate: Up to 100 MBit/s
Host PC Interface: 16-bit ISA slot
Installation: Slave interface card installed in dSPACE Expansion Box
Power Supply: +5 V ±5%, 150 mA from PC
Physical Dimensions: 158 × 80 × 18 mm (6.3 × 3.1 × 0.7 in.)
Form Factor: Insert Link Card
Key Features
Supports multiple connection types - high-speed serial links, optical connections, and Ethernet (100 Mb/s technology)
Enables distributed I/O architecture across expansion boxes without central PHS bus bottleneck
ISA slot interface for legacy host PC integration
Compatible with dSPACE Release 5.2 and later software
Operates with Pentium III at 800 MHz minimum (Pentium 4 at 1.6 GHz or higher recommended)
Typical Applications
Distributed HIL test systems requiring spatial partitioning of I/O resources
Real-time control prototyping with multi-box expansion architectures
Systems requiring extended I/O connectivity beyond single-box capacity
Compatibility & Integration The DS814-09 functions as the expansion box endpoint and requires a complementary link board installed in the host PC (DS813, DS815, DS817, DS819, or DS821 depending on host interface type). This paired architecture enables flexible communication topology across dSPACE AutoBoxes and Expansion Boxes. The board integrates with dSPACE hardware-in-the-loop environments where PHS bus partitioning improves system scalability and real-time performance.

dSPACE DS814-09 — Repair & Calibration Service
Aumictech offers NIST-traceable calibration and repair for the dSPACE DS814-09. Calibration covers analog input channel accuracy and offset at all gain settings, analog output accuracy, digital I/O logic threshold verification, sample rate and timing accuracy, and trigger and synchronization bus functional verification. NI CompactRIO and PXI chassis also undergo backplane trigger line integrity check.. All calibrations ship with a NIST-traceable certificate. Turnaround is typically 1–3 business days after receipt.
Common dSPACE DS814-09 faults: power supply failure (cRIO-9073/9074), C-series slot connector wear, PXI chassis fan failure, GPIB interface failure on VXI controllers, BIOS/EEPROM corruption. NI CompactRIO most common faults are power supply failure on older cRIO-9073/9074 chassis and C-series module slot connector wear from repeated hot-swap cycles. PXI chassis fan failure is the most common wear item — chassis fans are field-replaceable. VXI embedded controllers most commonly develop EEPROM corruption and GPIB interface failure.
