 VDEV-IO Prototyping Board for 6U VMEbus

 

Easy-use Development Board for 6U VME Systems.

 

 

 

Pittsford, New York.   VDEV-IO is a development board for engineers wanting do fast prototyping work on VMEbus systems. Built as a double Eurocard (6U) form-factor board, VDEV-IO has a built-in VMEbus interface (A24/16:D16 VMEbus slave interface).  Offering full interrupt capabilities, VDEV-IO can be set to decode 8 address ranges by precoding a vector register by jumper-selection. 

In addition to the decoding/interface circuitry, there is a large pre-drilled 0.1� matrix area for custom electronics, as well as 8 user-definable LEDs � mounted on the front panel � for easy use as system  status indicators.

Software drivers for VDEV-IO include most common operating systems.
