GPIB (General Purpose Interface Bus)
Often referred to as the IEEE-488.2 bus, GPIB bus or HP-IB bus, the GPIB (General Purpose Interface Bus) is a standard for instrumentation communication and control for instruments from manufactures the world over. In 1965, Hewlett-Packard designed the Hewlett-Packard Interface Bus (HP-IB) to connect their line of programmable instruments to their computers. Because of its high transfer rates (nominally 1 Mbytes/s), this interface bus...

IEEE-488 From Wikipedia
IEEE-488 is a short-range, digital communications bus specification. It was originally created for use with automated test equipment, and is still in wide use for that purpose. IEEE-488 is also commonly known as HP-IB (Hewlett-Packard Instrument Bus) and GPIB (General Purpose Interface Bus).

Overview of IEEE - 488
IEEE-488 refers to the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE) Standard number 488. This standard was first established in 1978, 13 years after Hewlett-Packard (HP) of Palo Alto, CA, began work to enable its broad range of instruments to communicate with one another and with 'host' computers. At the time of its development, IEEE-488 was particularly well-suited for instrument applications when compared with the...

Technical Notes: GPIB
The GPIB (general purpose interface bus) was specifically designed to connect computers, peripherals and laboratory instruments so that data and control information could pass between them. It is also known as IEEE-488 or HPIB, and is electrically equivalent to IEC-625 bus. It is defined completely in the IEEE standard 488.1-1987 Standard Digital Interface for Programmable Instrumentation.
