optoGPIB
The optoGPIB system can be used for the optical transmission of GPIB signals. The devices use standard negative TTL logic (transistor-transistor-logic with a dominant low level). The logic
levels gets detected at: low level ≤ 0.8 V and high level ≥ 2.0 V.
The standard connector is GPIB (IEEE 488.1). With the optical transmission, the shielded case and the high quality connector, the system is well equipped for EMI and EME tests and has proven its functionality in many automotive EMC labs already.
