Features:
- 1-Slot, C-size VXI Module
- Allows High-Density Utilization of VXI Space
- Supports up to (6) M-Modules
- Separate Logical Address for each M-Module
- Programmable Interrupts for each M-Module
The E2251A C-size, 1-slot, M-Module Carrier allows a VXI user the ability to cost effectively add small blocks of functionality. It provides backplane access to as many as six different M-Modules, each with independent addresses, plus, the function and point count that exactly matches the customer's system requirements. You can use up to 31 M-Modules with the E1406A Command Module, or use 255 M-Modules with embedded controllers, E8491B, and MXIbus solutions.
The carrier provides the electrical and mechanical interface between the VXIbus system backplane and the M-Modules. It also provides VXI register configuration, access to I/O space and memory, and interrupt handling. Additionally, it is in full compliance with VXI Specification Revision 1.4.
With each M-Module having its own address within the E2251A M-Module carrier, you have the flexibility to use the M-Modules in many combinations. This flexibility allows you to get the amount of functionality you need in smaller blocks, lowering your overall system costs. You can install up to six M-Modules on one E2251A carrier. However, for cabling access, it is recommended that only five M-Modules be placed in one E2251A.
Here is a partial list of M-Modules that the E2251A is compatible with:
• E2259A Double-Wide Breadboard M-Module
• E2261A Quad RS-232 Interface M-Module
• E2270A 16-Channel Form A Switch M-Module
• E2271A 4x4 Matrix Switch M-Module
• E2272A Dual 8x1 Relay Multiplexer M-Module
• E2273A 8-Channel Form C Switch M-Module
• E2274A 4-Channel Form C Power Relay M-Module
• E2290A 16-Bit Digital I/O M-Module
• E2291A 16-Channel Isolated Digital Output M-Module
The HP E2251A C-Size VXI M-Module Carrier may still be available for purchase and support from Artisan Technology Group beyond End-Of-Life (EOL) by the manufacturer (OEM).
