National Instruments’ high-density PXI and SCXI switch modules deliver an increase in relay density, to address a wide range of design needs for automated test equipment (ATE). PXI-2530/SCXI-1130 modules are high-density, 128-channel and 256-channel, multiconfiguration multiplexers/matrices. With different topologies and multiple expansion options, they are a solution for high-channel systems with a switching speed of 900 ch/s. The PXI-2529 high-density multiconfiguration matrix features a 128 crosspoint, two-wire matrix module, increasing matrix density by 433 %. Able to switch up to 150 VDC or 150 Vrms and up to 1 A switching/2 A carry, it is designed for routing multiple test points to several instruments in a matrix. The PXI-2567/SCXI-1167 64-channel, multipurpose relay modules drive up to 50 V or 600 mA of load, and can be used for many types of external relays, including high-current, high-voltage or multipole RF switches. All switches work with LabView graphical development environment and switch management software. The modules track and store relay cycle counts that can be used to perform predictive maintenance. To maximize system throughput, they also support hardware-triggered scanning. This makes test sequences highly deterministic, ensuring tight synchronization between measurement devices and the switches.
