This unit
The Agilent/Keysight E6237A is a C-size, 2-slot VXI controller module that is a real-time, message-based system controller for VXI mainframe integration. It has direct computer access to VXI devices, system memory, and triggers without requiring a separate command module. The E6237A features a full 32-bit wide data path (D32) on the VXIbus for maximum throughput and includes one EXM expansion slot for optional interface cards.
Technical Specifications
Processor & Memory- 166 MHz Intel Pentium processor
- 32 MB RAM, upgradeable via standard SODIMMs
- 2.16 GB internal 2.5" notebook-style hard drive with 3.5" floppy drive Operating System & Software

Key Features
- Message-based, real-time controller architecture eliminates dedicated command module requirement
- Single EXM expansion slot enables custom interface integration
- Standard LAN connection provides flexible system connectivity
- Supports Agilent SICL I/O library and C-SCPI instrument command language
- Memory upgradeable using standard SODIMM modules
Storage Considerations The 2.16 GB internal drive is configured for low-usage operation. Continuous disk read/writes exceeding once per minute may cause premature failure. High-frequency storage applications require external SCSI hard drives or VXI disk modules such as the E3249B.
Compatibility & Integration The E6237A integrates with all Agilent C-size mainframe chassis. Dual optional licensing packages support both development (Option 001) and run-time environments (Option 002), enabling flexible deployment in production and development workflows.
Agilent / Keysight E6237A — Repair & Calibration Service
Aumictech offers NIST-traceable calibration and repair for the Agilent / Keysight E6237A. 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 E6237A 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.
