MX-Foundation SDK offers you groups of function calls that interface with on-board MX core software and control all protocol and I/O supported by MAX Technologies. The on-board MX core handles the various protocol & I/O timing, data scheduling, buffering and filtering tasks

This combination offloads your host computer and makes available resources for your critical software applications. MX-Foundation gives you high-level abstraction (channel class-oriented) of hardware and communication protocols.

In addition to the overall learning curve process and the time-to-market that can be tremendously reduced, MX-Foundation also offers a full evolutionary capability by being hardware and operating system independent, thus reducing your overall system life-cycle support cost.

MX-Foundation allows to reduce the difficulties and the engineering cost related to systems development that require the integration of different communication protocols, analog and discrete signals.

MX-Foundation also allows to reduce the cost and time inconveniences of being trapped with a software application that runs under a specific operating system and hardware form factor, which might not be upgradeable to a new environment.

Supported Carrier Boards

MX-Foundation can be used with MAX Technologies’ PCI, CPCI, VME and PXI series-400 intelligent carrier boards.
