Pickering 40-513-021 Single Pole 24 × 4 PXI Matrix Module
The Pickering 40-513-021 is a single pole 24 × 4 PXI matrix module designed for industrial systems that require reliable signal routing and controlled switching performance. It is a compact PXI card that supports a high density of ruthenium reed relays for stable low level switching applications. Each relay is positioned at a dedicated cross-point and the module provides 96 switching nodes. The Pickering 40-513-021 uses ruthenium sputtered reed relays that support a maximum standoff voltage of 150 V DC or 100 V AC. It handles a maximum switch current of 1 A under rated load conditions and a maximum carry current of 1.2 A. The design maintains an on resistance below 300 m ohms and supports an off resistance above 1 G ohm for stable isolation.
The relay system in the 40-513-021 module offers fast actuation with typical operate and release times near 0.25 ms. It supports a long operational life with 1 billion operations under low power loads and more than 5 million operations at full rated load. The reed relay architecture ensures consistent performance in repetitive switching tasks across extended deployment cycles and spare relays are integrated on the printed circuit board. The unit’s matrix layout provides 24 X channels and 4 Y channels arranged as a non-blocking switching structure. Its architecture allows flexible routing between any X and Y path within the single pole framework. Signal access is provided through a front panel 68-way SCSI type connector that supports clear channel mapping and its internal control logic uses storage registers as well as a PCI bridge that manages relay actuation based on system commands.
The 40-513-021 matrix module is implemented as a single slot 3 U PXI module that complies with PXI Specification 2.1. It connects to the system using a standard 32-bit CompactPCI backplane interface and operates from a 5 V supply while typically draws 280 mA. No secondary supply rails are required which helps simplify system power management in constrained chassis environments. The Pickering 40-513-021 single pole matrix unit supports software interfaces for Direct I O and VISA based environments to offer detailed relay status reporting and clear identification parameters for integration within automated test systems. Its compliance with relevant safety and electromagnetic standards supports dependable deployment in controlled industrial spaces.
