Data Patterns Pvt. Ltd.

Data Patterns Pvt. Ltd.

VXI stands for VME eXtensions for Instrumentation. It is an open standard first developed by five leading Test and Measurement companies in 1987 to standardise a backplane capable of developing open, interchangeable instrument modules that could be used to build Automatic Test Equipment (ATE).Data Patterns designs and markets a wide range of VXI modules, some of which are listed below. Due to the use of the latest technologies, Data Patterns VXI modules offer the highest I/O density available in the industry today.Further enhancements of functional capabilities are achieved by the use of VXI IP carriers and VXI M Module carriers. This extends standard functions available from Data Patterns in these mezzanine architectures to the VXI platform.

Kontron

Kontron

VXS (VME Switched Serial) represents an extension of the VME family according to VITA 41.0.  This system is downward-compatible, so that assemblies with VME 96-pin connectors can still be used, while adopting the use of serial signals such as Gigabit Ethernet, PCI Express, Serial RapidI/O, and other fabrics.

VXI Switching

Pickering Interfaces Inc.

Pickering Interfaces Inc.

The Aerospace and Defense industries were early adopters of modular test platforms. One of the first successes was VXI test systems and VXI switching. They served these industries very well for more than 20 years. Now, as VXI test systems become obsolete, test systems developers are looking to PXI as the next generation modular test platform for their industries. We offer a few different references to help you in making a switch to PXI.

AMETEK VTI Instruments

AMETEK VTI Instruments

The first VXIbus specification was introduced to the test and measurement community in 1987 and was initially developed to provide a card-based instrumentation platform for applications that required high density and high performance. The platform continues to thrive today by leveraging off the original specifications which define the necessary physical (real estate/cooling) and electrical standards for demanding applications and has established itself as the ‘time-tested bus you can trust’ for requirements that must be supported in excess of ten-fifteen years.
