This unit
The Keysight/Agilent/HP E6235A is a C-size, 2-slot VXI Pentium PC controller that embeds a standard PC environment directly within VXI mainframe architectures. It eliminates the need for external command modules by providing integrated computer access to VXI devices, system memory, and trigger signals. The controller features a 32-bit wide VXIbus data path and delivers full peripheral connectivity for test system integration.
Technical Specifications
Processor: Intel Pentium, 200 MHz
Memory: 16 MB to 128 MB RAM
Storage: 1 GB to 10 GB hard drive; 1.44 MB floppy drive
Data Path: 32-bit wide VXIbus access
Form Factor: C-size, 2-slot module
Key Features
Direct VXIbus integration via 32-bit data path eliminates external controller dependency
Standard PC architecture supports Windows NT and VXIplug&play-compliant software
Comprehensive I/O: PS/2 keyboard and mouse, serial (COM), USB, Ethernet, VGA monitor, SCSI, and parallel (LPT) ports
HP-22/EXM-22 GPIB card typically installed for instrumentation control
Single additional EXM slot allows custom interface expansion
Integrated 1.44 MB floppy drive for legacy boot and data transfer
Compatibility & Integration
Compatible with E84XX, E1401B, and E1421B VXI mainframe series
Supports SICL/VISA and VXIplug&play standards for instrument driver integration
Native Windows NT environment simplifies software deployment and maintenance
VXIbus architecture enables seamless communication with other C-size and 1/3-size modules within the same chassis The E6235A consolidates controller, processor, and connectivity into a single VXI module, reducing system footprint while maintaining full access to mainframe resources and external instrumentation networks.
Keysight / Agilent / HP E6235A — Repair & Calibration Service
Aumictech offers NIST-traceable calibration and repair for the Keysight / Agilent / HP E6235A. 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 Keysight / Agilent / HP E6235A 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.
