This unit
The Agilent/Keysight E8404A is a 13-slot C-size VXI mainframe delivering 1000 watts of usable power for complex automated test equipment and data acquisition systems. It combines an advanced air distribution cooling system with refined backplane architecture and real-time diagnostics to support high-reliability testing in laboratory and production environments. Surface-mount construction, solid-state daisy-chain logic, and differential CLK10 distribution ensure signal integrity across all slots.
Technical Specifications
- Form Factor: C-size, 13-slot VXI mainframe
- Usable Power: 1000 watts
- Cooling System: Innovative air distribution with variable or full-speed fan control; separate power supply cooling fan with independent air path for thermal efficiency
- Backplane: Surface-mount construction with no sockets; solid-state automatic daisy-chain jumpering for BUS GRANT and IACK signals; full differential CLK10 distribution; ACFAIL* and SYSRESET* signals compliant with VMEbus and VXIbus specifications
- Temperature Monitoring: Module exhaust temperature at three points per slot, power supply temperature, and ambient temperature
- Diagnostics: History queue, strip charts, histograms, and full-color graphics display; accessible via VXIbus or RS-232 connection using SCPI commands
Key Features
- Enhanced monitoring system tracks temperatures, power supply voltages and currents, fan operation, and system status throughout the mainframe
- Front-panel diagnostics connector enables continuous local or remote system monitoring
- QUIC easy module insertion and extraction system with injector surface rails
- Rear-accessible power supply and cooling components allow in-rack maintenance without frame removal
- Plug-in power supply design supports field service
Typical Applications
- Complex automated test equipment (ATE)
- Multi-channel data acquisition systems
- Laboratory and enterprise test environments requiring extended operation and detailed diagnostics
Compatibility & Integration
- VXI Specification compliant backplane and bus architecture
- RS-232 and VXIbus interfaces for system control and remote monitoring
- SCPI command set for mainframe addressing and control
