The award winning VXI Modular Instrumentation Platform
(VMIP™) provides customers with a level of modularity for instruments that is
unmatched in the industry. The VMIP™ makes a single VXIbus card slot three times
more powerful than single device solutions. Each VMIP™ instrument can be mixed
and matched with other VMIP™ devices for added flexibility.
The VMIP™ is designed for high performance instrumentation, i.e., 6.5 digit
DMMs, 1 ns counter/timers, 50 MSa/s AWGs. As such, the VMIP™ design supports all
aspects of the VXI specification including access to all seven power supply
lines, TTLbus triggers, and interrupts. Each VMIP™ product is an independent
VXIbus device with its own unique logical address (ULA) and VXIplug&play
drivers.

More than 20 unique instrument modules are available on the platform, bringing
robust performance and design flexibility to ATE systems. Today, VMIP™ products
are the choice of many system developers with over 1000 VM9000 base units
shipped per year. For example, VMIP™ products have enabled designers of the
following systems to leverage off the most popular modular mezzanine platform on
the market:
- Boeing 777 NxGen
- Lockheed LMSTAR Avionics
- Raytheon STEP Missile Testers
- International Trucking ECM EITS
- Dell Computer ESS Testing
- Schlumberger Drill Head PCB
- Delphi Research and Development
