Technology

VMEbus is a modular 19" computer architecture, the term VME stands for “VERSAmodule Eurocard”. Since 1983 this standard has become increasingly well established; it is supported by hundreds of companies producing thousands of off-the-shelf products.

More than two decades later, VMEbus is still the leading bus technology in the world of embedded applications.

Continuous evolution of the technology and the introduction of many improve- ments have spawned a number of powerful VME standards keeping the architecture up to date. VMEbus sys- tems provide scalable bandwidth and

The active VMEbus community, headed by the VITA (VMEbus International Trade Association), offers a multitude of products with the advantages of compatibility, interoperability, and
