IoT

One of the new challenges arising with the use of edge, fog, and cloud architectures is the connection of components to each other and to the public cloud. An important element of developing a solution capturing all pieces is the IoT framework susietec

At the field, or edge level, data is collected by industrial computers, e.g. by gateways, which process, filter, analyze and act on these data in real-time right at the device.

Edge, fog and cloud applications demand increasing computing power. The interfaces to sensors or machines often require non-standard solutions. Especially in smaller machines, space is limited or restricted in some dimension and need a special solution.

Today, the connection from the sensor device to the embedded cloud takes place via real-time data communication, on sensor and edge level - for example Industrial Ethernet or fieldbuses - and gateways , which provide the transformation of real time data into the informational area.

The VM-DBA is a high-performance test and diagnostic module designed to visualize, analyze, and record activities across all VME-bus lines. It supports 32 data and 32 address lines, as well as all key bus and control signals such as IRQ1–7, IACK/IACKIN, BG/BR1–3, Bus Clear, Bus Busy, VD, CLK, RES, SYSF, ACF, AS, DS1/DS0, LWORD, DTACK, and BERR.

With programmable trigger conditions, dual VME and USB interfaces, and an external trigger input via front-panel LEMO connector, it provides maximum flexibility for system analysis.

Waveforms can be captured at up to 100 MHz and stored in two FPGA-programmable 2 kBit memories, accessible via an intuitive Windows-based GUI for graphical visualization and detailed evaluation.

Fully compliant with ANSI/IEEE 1014, IEC 821, and IEC 297 standards, the module supports various VME slave modes (D08(OE), D16, D32, A16, A24, A32) and Interrupt Handler 1H (1–7).
Thanks to low-power CMOS technology, the VM-DBA ensures efficient performance and minimal power consumption, making it an ideal diagnostic and monitoring solution for VME-based systems.

Features

Compliance: Fully conforms to ANSI/IEEE STD 1014, IEC 821, IEC 297

Control & Monitoring: Programmable trigger conditions, USB and VME access, MS Windows software for waveform analysis

Power & Efficiency: Low-power CMOS design with 1.4 A typical current draw

Design & Components: Dual on-board SPI memories for FPGA configurations, firmware upgradable via VME

Mechanical: 6U single-slot module, front-panel LEMO trigger input

Functionality: Visualization of all key VME signals (data, address, IRQ, control, and voltage lines) via color LEDs
