Combining VXI and PXIe Systems: A Seamless Integration Approach
Enhancing Test and Measurement Capabilities Through PCI Express Connectivity
This white paper explores practical solutions for integrating VXIbus and PXIe-based systems, enabling seamless communication and control through a unified architecture. By leveraging Bustec’s ProDAQ 3030 PCI Express Slot-0 Interface and ProDAQ 3261 PCI Express Host Interface Card, engineers can establish high-speed connections through VXIbus mainframes and PXIe crates. Various configurations are discussed, detailing hot-pluggable capabilities, power cycling options, and interoperability with third-party hardware. Additionally, the paper highlights the role of VISA I/O libraries in ensuring efficient software integration. Whether using multiple PCI Express host slots, a single-slot solution, or an embedded PXI controller, this guide provides a roadmap for optimizing mixed test environments.
