Switches can be used in commercial and military ATE systems applications
Pickering Interfaces
40-754 SPDT switch module
The latest PXI RF switches from Pickering Interfaces can be used in commercial and military ATE systems applications and are available in high-density and high-frequency versions, both based around electro-mechanical relays.
The switch supports up to 17 off SPDT RF switches in a single module.
The high-density version uses one slot of a 3U PXI chassis and a high-density MS-M RF multi-way connector, suitable for changing frequencies to 500MHz.
The high-frequency version occupies two slots and uses SMB connectors that are suitable for switching signals to 1.2GHz.
Key product features
- Suitable for use in older VXI-based military ATE applications that are being replaced and/or upgraded by PXI/LXI solutions and where large amounts of SPDT are being used as standard RF switch sub-assemblies.
- Switch design is supported in any PXI compliant chassis.
- It can also be supported in Pickering Interfaces’ Modular LXI Chassis.
