VMEbus eXtensions for Instrumentation
These are the eight TTL and two ECL lines on the VXIbus
backplane which are used for intermodule communication.
Typical applications are triggering and clocking measurements.
A group of VXI developers dedicated to making VXI devices as
easy to use as possible, primarily by simplifying software
development.
Multiple voltage readings taken at a specific sampling rate
waveform generation trigger signal
Data path between nodes.
The simplest required communication protocol used by message-
based devices in the VXIbus system. It uses the A16
communication registers to transfer data with a simple polling
handshake method.
