Characteristics
The VMOD-4D was created to
provide systems designers with
a selection of dedicated I/O
interfaces from PEP’s large
palette of industrial ModPack
modules. Complete with one or
two 50-pin D-Sub front-panel
connectors, the VMOD-4D
offers an inherent resistance to
EMI radiation.
Industrial ModPacks provide a cost-
effective solution for a wide variety of
applications, tailoring the VMOD-4D
to precisely fit a particular input/out-
put requirement.
Each ModPack interface accesses an 8
or 16-bit data-bus, supports 11 address
and extended control (IRQ) lines and
provides separate interrupt lines.
Any four industrial I/O ModPacks
from an ever expanding range may be
fitted to cater for the needs of digital,
analog, communication or counter
functions. PEP’s open piggyback speci-
fication is documented also for cus-
tom solutions and is currently under-
going the process of standardization
through the VITA organization.
