TDK Lambda VM9000 VXI Modular Instrumentation Platform
The TDK Lambda VM9000 is a VXI Modular Instrumentation Platform (VMIP) for industrial automation systems. The platform increases the output of a single VXIbus card slot by three times. This modular architecture allows this model to replace several standalone instruments with one compact unit. Each instrument operates as an independent VXIbus device with its own unique logical address. The platform includes dedicated VXIplug-and-play drivers for system integration and configuration. This design lets users mix and match the modules with other VMIP instruments freely.
The VXI Modular Instrumentation Platform architecture supports multiple instrument functions within a single physical module slot. Each instrument carries the VXI registers required for message-based, register-based, or memory device types. A single MODID line routes module identification signals from the platform to the slot controller. Within a module the logical addresses for multiple instruments must remain sequential. These instruments may share common address decoding hardware within the module to reduce circuit complexity and cost.
The Offset Register on the VM9000 Instrumentation Platform indicates how many devices within that module share common decoder logic. The first device in the group receives the lowest logical address within that block. The last device receives the highest available address within the same address block. The VXIbus standard allows up to 256 devices within a single VXIbus system. Each device on the bus receives a unique logical address ranging from 0 to 255. A VM9000-based test system can therefore host numerous instrument modules without any address conflicts.
The platform reduces actual hardware costs compared to earlier VXI-based instruments. It also preserves the intangible savings traditionally associated with VXI-based test systems.
The VM9000 platform supports high-performance instrumentation, including 6.5-digit digital multimeters and precision counter/timers. These counter/timers deliver resolution down to 1 nanosecond for accurate timing. The platform also accommodates arbitrary waveform generators with sampling rates up to 50 megasamples per second. Every module provides access to all seven VXIbus power supply lines for flexible power distribution. It also gives full access to TTL bus triggers across the VXIbus backplane. Interrupt lines are fully supported for synchronized multi-module operation within the chassis.
