This unit
The HP E4504A and E1330B are complementary VXI modules that expand automated test system capabilities through optical switching and digital I/O control. The E4504A is a C-size single-slot dual optical 1x4 multiplexer for optical signal routing in VXI-based measurement systems. The E1330B is a B-size single-slot quad 8-bit digital input/output module offering configurable port logic, multi-word data transmission modes, and handshaking control lines for instrument integration.

Compatibility & Integration Both modules integrate into VXIbus-compliant mainframes. The E4504A occupies C-size slots directly. The E1330B operates in B-size slots or requires an E1403C Adapter for C-size mainframe installation. Supported command modules include E1300A/E1301A, E1306A, and E1405A/B/E1406A. The HP Digital I/O Driver enables operation with B-size mainframes or HP E1405/06 Command Modules in C-size configurations.
