GPIB/IEEE-488 Signals
GPIB is a type of parallel interface that contains data, command, and interface signal
lines in one cable. GPIB addressing allows up to 15 devices to share a single 8-bit parallel
data bus. The maximum data rate is around 8 MB/s for the latest versions of the
standard.
Internally, GPIB uses 12 lines for various signals and 12 lines for shield and ground
connections. Table 7-6 lists the GPIB signals, and Figure 7-37 shows the pin-out of a
GPIB connector.
