[mod.computers.vax] VME-bus or Multibus-II interfaces for Uni/Q-bus?

WOLF@BBNG (Jerry Wolf) (06/24/86)

We're looking to develop some signal processing software for an
array processor such as the Sky Warrior or Sky Vortex, and it would
be convenient to use one of our VAXen or MicroVAXen as the development
system.  Such AP's (those aren't the only possibilities) interface
to the VMEbus or Multibus-II.  Is there available anything such as
an interface for the Unibus or Q-bus that would interface to such
devices?  Local DEC salesman has been no help.  Thanx.

Several manufactures of array processor boxes provide Unibus and Q-bus
support.  FPS is one, at the high end.  I'm 99% sure that Sky itself does,
too.  They (Sky) should be able to tell you.
