VXIbus

VXI Dual Binary Serial Module

● Sends and receives 16-bit word and arbitrary bit length messages with baud rates up to 9 Mbs. Handles most binary formats at high transfer rates.
● Multiple transmission modes and programmable gate and clock outputs. Duplicates most serial protocols.
● Receiver inputs data upon command on when a sync pattern is detected. Captures both types of messages.
● Register based interface has fast VXIbus data transfer rate. Reduces VXIbus transfer time.
● Large TX and RX FIFO's hold 2 Mbytes. Enough data for a complete test sequence.
● Internal Baud Rate Generators covers a 1 to 10 MHz range. Provides all clock rates.
● Transmission can be triggered with external or VXIbus triggers. Easily controllable in a test system.
● Custom protocols with special firmware. Adapts module to your special test needs.

VXI 4 or 8 serial ports in one module

● Four or eight programmable RS-232, RS-422 or RS-485 Serial Ports. No need to remove the module to make changes.
● Multiprotocol capability - ASYNC mode standard, HDLC, SDLC, and other bit oriented protocols with custom firmware. Supports virtually any serial data transfer application.
● Asynchronous mode select character format, flow control and clock sources. Program any asynchronous format.
● Any standard baud rate from 50 to 460.8 Kbaud with internal clock. Wide range of programmable baud rates.
● Message-based or Fast Data Channel buffers for continuous high-speed data transfer. Allows continuous serial data with minimal VXIbustime.
● Programmed termination resistors for RS-485 half duplex operation. Eliminates external resistors.
● Alpha numeric status display on front panel. Shows device activity and interface diagnostics for program debugging.
