This unit
The Agilent/Keysight E2251A is a C-size, single-slot VXI M-Module Carrier that provides cost-effective integration of specialized functionality into VXIbus systems. It accommodates up to six M-Modules, each with independent logical addressing, enabling tailored system configurations that optimize both cost and performance. The carrier manages the electrical and mechanical interface between the VXIbus backplane and installed M-Modules, handling VXI register configuration, I/O space and memory access, and interrupt handling.
Fully programmable interrupts are available for each M-Module.

Compatibility & Integration The E2251A supports a wide range of Agilent/Keysight M-Modules including the E2259A Double-Wide Breadboard, E2261A Quad RS-232 Interface, E2270A 16-Channel Form A Switch, E2271A 4×4 Matrix Switch, E2272A Dual 8×1 Relay Multiplexer, E2273A 8-Channel Form C Switch, E2274A 4-Channel Form C Power Relay, E2290A 16-Bit Digital I/O, and E2291A 16-Channel Isolated Digital Output modules. When paired with the Agilent E1406A Command Module, the carrier supports up to 31 M-Modules. Embedded controllers such as the Agilent E8491B and MXIbus solutions enable configurations supporting up to 255 M-Modules. VXIplug&play support is provided for Windows 95/NT and HP-UX frameworks.
Agilent / Keysight E2251A — Repair & Calibration Service
Aumictech offers NIST-traceable calibration and repair for the Agilent / Keysight E2251A. Calibration covers all module-specific parameters per manufacturer datasheet, output accuracy and linearity, frequency accuracy, and VXI register and trigger bus compliance. All calibrations ship with a NIST-traceable certificate. Turnaround is typically 1–3 business days after receipt.
Common Agilent / Keysight E2251A faults: relay contact wear, DAC/ADC drift, VXI backplane connector oxidation. Common faults include relay contact wear, DAC or ADC gain drift, and VXI backplane edge connector oxidation. Most modules are repaired at the component level with full post-repair verification in a C-size or D-size mainframe.
