VXI
-
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.

Powered VXI Crates
-
VXI – (VME eXtension for Instrumentation): The demand for a compact, both flexible and fast industry-standard instrument-on-a-card architecture has driven the development of the VXI standard. The modular form factor, high bandwidth, and commercial success of the VMEbus made it particularly attractive as an instrumentation platform. The tremendous popularity of GPIB also made it attractive as a model for device communication and instrument control protocols.

VXI J1-J2 Series
-
VXI is a prime example of the old saying, “if it isn’t broken, don’t fix it.” Since the late 1980’s, VXI has been a trusted standard in the world of testing solutions as a more compact and robust predecessor of the GPIB standard. Arising initially to soothe the need for a more compact and integral open testing standard, VXI is still as necessary and impactful as it was more than 30 years ago.

VXI Chassis
Chassis
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.
