This unit
The Keysight/Agilent/HP E1415A is a VXIbus Algorithmic Closed-Loop Controller that executes complex real-time control algorithms on a dedicated onboard Digital Signal Processor. This C-size, single-slot module eliminates dependency on host computer processing for primary control functions, delivering deterministic response times essential for precision closed-loop applications. It bridges standard PID control and fully custom algorithm implementations, supporting up to 32 independent control loops with user-defined logic written in ANSI C subset programming.
