Home > VXIbus


The VXIbus architecture is an open standard platform for automated test based upon VMEbus. VXI stands for VME eXtensions for Instrumentation, defining additional bus lines for timing and triggering as well as mechanical requirements and standard protocols for configuration, message-based communication, multi-chassis extension, and other features.

VXIbus modules are typically 6U in height (see Eurocard) and C-size (unlike VMEbus modules which are more commonly B-size).

VXIbus is promoted by the VXIbus Consortium, whose sponsor members are (in alphabetical order) Agilent Technologies, Bustec , National Instruments, Racal Instruments , Teradyne, and VXI Technology .

The VXIplug&play Alliance , also known as VXIpnp, specifies additional hardware and software interoperability standards, notably the Virtual Instrument Standard Architecture or VISA.
