GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The AX5488 is a full-function IEEE-488 standard GP-IB interface for the IBM PC bus. The interface makes possible the transfer of data between thousands of IEEE-488 compatible devices and IBM PC/XT/AT or compatible computers.

The AX5488 is a half-sized board that can be plugged into any I/O slot. The AX5488 has the features of shared interrupt capabilities which is compatible with IBM's GPIB adapter.

IEEE-488 was designed for use in network for instruments, which allows up to 15 devices classified into 3 types: Talker, Listener and Controller.

APPLICATIONS
IBM PC equipped with the AX5488 becomes an IEEE-488 controller that can be used for numerous applications in laboratory testing, product testing, and process monitoring and control functions. It can be used to monitor and control medical instruments.
Data terminal link
Remote control device interface
Interfaces PC to other computers or instruments
