National Instruments 780587-29 PXIe-2529 Matrix Switch Module
The National Instruments 780587-29 (PXIe-2529) is a 128-crosspoint, 2-wire PXI Express matrix switch module engineered for high-speed signal routing in automated test systems. Utilizing robust electromechanical latching relays with silver-palladium and gold-plated contacts, the unit delivers flexible hardware topologies including 4x32, 8x16, and dual 4x16 2-wire matrix layouts. Operating over a high-throughput PXI Express bus interface, the module scans at rates up to 120 cycles per second with maximum relay operate and release times of just 4 ms at 20°C.
Designed for versatile power handling, the 780587-29 manages switching voltages up to 150 VDC/VAC with maximum switching currents of 1 A per channel (2 A maximum carry current, 8 A maximum total module current). Channel switching power is rated at 30 W DC and 37.5 VA AC, featuring an ultra-low initial DC path resistance below 1 ohm and exceptional thermal EMF performance under 9 µV to preserve signal fidelity. With a minimum current threshold of 10 µA for reliable contact closure, the relays offer an expected mechanical lifetime of 50 million cycles.
The PXIe-2529 maintains a switch bandwidth exceeding 10 MHz in 50-ohm system configurations, providing excellent RF isolation with crosstalk performance rated below -80 dB at 10 kHz and below -50 dB at 1 MHz. Advanced hardware synchronization is enabled via PXI trigger lines 0 through 7, supporting input pulse widths as low as 150 ns and standard 3.3 V TTL output trigger pulses (2 µs default width). Fully integrated with NI driver software, the module provides a reliable, scalable foundation for complex signal routing in high-density automated test equipment (ATE) and industrial validation environments.
