SCXI-1181K Custom Module Assembly
This guide documents the contents of your SCXI-1181K custom module assembly kit and
includes illustrations of the circuit board specifications and the module assembly.
Introduction
The SCXI-1181K custom module assembly kit includes the unassembled components you need
to build a custom SCXI module, but not the actual circuit board. All of the mechanical
components of an SCXI module, such as the metal enclosure, front and back panels, and
connectors, are included.
The SCXI-1181K is intended for developers of custom SCXI modules who design and lay out
custom circuit boards for modules. For prototyping or building low-volume custom SCXI
modules, the fully assembled SCXI-1181 breadboard module is more appropriate.
What Your Kit Should Contain
The SCXI-1181K custom module assembly kit (part number 776572-81K) contains the
components listed in the following table. The reference numbers in the left column of the table
