Acronym

As far as I know, "NIM" stands for "National Instrumentation Methods". See for example here: [1] --ulm (talk) 16:41, 30 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]


The acronym NIM is explained on page 1 (page 15 of the PDF) of the standard (http://www.osti.gov/energycitations/servlets/purl/7120327-MV8wop/7120327.pdf). The same document also contains a pin definition which does not mention +/- 3V as specified in the table on the TWiki page. This should be clarified. -- M.

References

Most of the references are not authoritative and are not referenced in the text. I am moving the following to "see also". I'm not sure they are worth mentioning there when we have the specification document in the references that clearly defines the intended specifications to international standards.
