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.
HP E4504A/E1330B — Repair & Calibration Service
Aumictech offers NIST-traceable calibration and repair for the HP E4504A/E1330B. 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 HP E4504A/E1330B 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.
