Overview
Product description
Features
The PXI multiplexer switch modules deliver high-speed signal
routing of many different channels to a single point, and are ideal
for routing multiple analog signals to a measurement device in
Automated Test Environments (ATE) or data acquisition systems.
– Delivers high-speed signal routing of many different channels
to a single point
– High-speed, long-life reed relays or higher power armature
relays
– Modules operate in break-before-make mode ensuring only
one channel is connected at a time
– Software drivers support the most common programming
environments
– Optional connector blocks offer reliable measurements from
robust, high-pincount interconnects
– PXI Chassis connector compatibility: cPCI (J1), PXI-1 (J1 only),
PXIe hybrid slot
These switches can operate in a break-before-make mode,
ensuring no two points are connected at the same time, or, when
needed, allowing multiple channels to be connected simultaneously.
The modules include an isolation switch that connects the closed
channels to a module common, which minimizes the capacitive
loading and leakage currents in larger multiplexer systems. You
can also expand multiplexers by linking the common connections
of multiple PXI cards.
– Easy programming and control with soft front panels and
Keysight’s Command Expert
Installation and configuration is fast and easy with standard
cable connections or an optional connector block, soft front
panels, and Keysight Technologies, Inc. Connection Expert. In
addition, software drivers support the most common programming
environments such as Visual Studio, C, C++, Visual Basic, MATLAB,
and LabVIEW.
