The HP 16501A expansion frame has been developed to extend the HP 16500C logic analysis systems beyond its five-card limit, and meet the anticipated need for systems requiring more than five slots.
Adding the 16501A to the 16500C creates a tightly-coupled, two-frame, ten-card system, fully controlled by the 16500C. A single power switch (located on the 16500C front panel) turns on both frames. The HP 16501A offers inter-frame module arming/triggering capabilities with a 2-nanosecond time correlation between modules.
The 16501A expansion frame is very similar to the mainframe. It consists of a card cage, rear panel, power supply, and fans. The interface is a buffering scheme to pass signals between the mainframe and the 16501A backplane. It contains circuitry that controls external arming selection and enables an HP 16501A card to drive an output dedicated to triggering other instruments.
