VME3XX - VMEbus M-module carrier board preconfigured with 4 M-modules
User Manual
1.
I
NTRODUCTION
Each VME3XX is a 6U VMEbus M-module carrier board preconfigured with four M-modules from AcQuisition
Technology's M-module range M300 to M399. The VMEbus M-module carrier board is the i4000/NP2 board.
VME3XX VMEbus boards are offered as standard off the shelf products and provided as a package consisting
of an i4000 M-module carrier board for the VMEbus and four installed M-modules.
The reason why VME3XX products are offered as an individual product while in fact the product is composed
of standard modules which are separately available, is because in practice it seems that system integrators
are looking for VMEbus boards and not for M-modules. Since a VME3XX board has all the advantages of a
VMEbus board and the advantages of a modular board by using M-modules for the actual I/O, it can compete
with dedicated VMEbus boards. Additionally the I/O functionality of each VME3XX board is available on 3U
VMEbus cards and other bus architectures such as PCI, CompactPCI and others which makes application
software portable over various bus systems with little programming effort.
