A NIM Committee working group has recently completed a specification that defines a standard digital bus for use with NIM modules. The standard bus is based on the General Purpose Instrumentation Bus of IEEE Standard 488. It incorporates a subset of the codes and conventions for the GPIB given in IEEE Standard 728. The standard bus definition also includes specifications for additional features and provisions that are special to the NIM application. The most prominent of these is the set of mnemonics defined for information transfer.
