Could someone tell me where I can get information on the VME bus?
It is probably someones trademark and I don't know whose it is. So,
VME bus is a trademark of <whose ever it is a trademark of>.
Thanks.

I have a copy called: "MVMEBS/D1" VMEbus Specification Manual Rev B, Aug 82 By the way, if you can find in the spec the dimension from the top of the circuit board to the holes for mounting the rear panel then you must have divine guidance. I searched the spec forever and finally had to resort to the IEC896 "Eurocard" spec. Not using VME, Pat Chewning NSC Portland Development Center 15201 NW Greenbriar Pkwy Beaverton, OR 97006

For those interested in the VME bus, Revision C is supposed to be available from Motorola. Also available is a summary listing 10 changes, the reason for the change and the compatibility impact. If your interested, go see your Motorola rep. Randy Banton
