VPX Overview

VPX breaks out from the traditional connector scheme of VMEbus to merge the latest in connector and packaging technology with the latest in bus and serial fabric technology.

VPX combines best-in-class technologies to assure a very long technology cycle similar to that of the original VMEbus solutions. Traditional parallel VMEbus will continue to be supported by VPX through bridging schemes that assure a solid migration pathway.

High-Speed Switched Serial Fabrics Improve System Design Handbook
Written by Rodger Hosking, Vice President and Co-founder of Pentek

VMEbus continues as the dominant bus structure for high-performance embedded systems. In an industry characterized by a steady succession of new device offerings with speed and density increases every few months, the VMEbus has retained its leadership position not simply because it was based on a sound electrical and mechanical architecture.

Indeed, the major reason for its longevity has been a series of performance and feature enhancements promoted and nurtured by a broad base of VMEbus vendors.
