  • Page 2 There are at least nine good reasons to consider LXI for present and future test sys- Figure 1. Agilent’s LXI-compatible 34980A LXI multi-function switch/measure unit allows for insertion and removal of plug-in cards while power is on. tems, as described in the April...
  • Page 3 1-Gbit/s connections becoming commonplace and 10-Gbit/s on the way. I/O performance should not be an issue for LXI devices in typical automotive applications that require both transactional programming and transfers of large data blocks such as wave- forms captured by digitizers.
  • Page 4 At most, the system may require the addition of a low-cost LAN switch to provide ports for added LXI devices. Figure 2. In an automotive test system, LXI components enable greater scalability and flexibility to meet present and future needs.
  • Page 5 Examples include the Agilent N5700 series of high-power supplies and the Agilent N6700 series of modular supplies (Figure 4). Figure 4. Some LXI-compliant power supplies have size, power and functionality advan- tages over GPIB and PXI alternatives. cPCI Rapid IO...
