This manual contains a module description, configuration and wiring
information, and general programming information for the Agilent E2259A
Double-Wide Breadboard M-Module. Complete specifications for the
breadboard are provided in Appendix A.
The Agilent E2259A is intended to be installed on a carrier such as the
Agilent E2251 M-Module Carrier. Refer to the Carrier documentation for
M-Module installation information.
This chapter contains general features, a block diagram description,
configuration information and connector pinouts for the Agilent E2259A.
The Agilent E2259A is a double-wide breadboard M-Module. As a
double-wide module it occupies two adjacent slots in the Carrier. However,
it is scored down the middle and can easily be "snapped" in half; with all the
active M-Module interface circuits on one of the two halves. See Figure 1-2.
Even though the Agilent E2259A breadboard is a double-wide, in an Agilent
E2251 Carrier, the module requires only one VXIbus logical address. When
installed in the Carrier the module functions as a standard VXIbus device.
The Agilent E2259A provides:
•
A8/D16 Register-based M-Module interface circuitry.
•
A programmable BUSY Timer (for delaying interrupt
acknowledgment of command completion).
•
A 16-bit input/output (I/O) Register.
•
Read/Write decoder lines
•
Support for internal/external interrupts.
