Pickering 40-510-022 PXI Switching Module
The Pickering 40-510-022 is a PXI based reed relay matrix module for high-density signal switching in Automated Test Equipment (ATE) and data acquisition (DAQ) systems. The 40-510-022 has a 12x4 matrix configuration and two-pole switching using reed relays. The 12x4 matrix allows for independent dual-path connections for differential signals or two-wire connections. The reed relays are sputtered with Ruthenium for long operational life, stable comparable contact resistance, and low thermal offset voltages. The relays can service unworn switching voltages up to 150VDC or 100VAC, with a maximum current of 1.2A and 20 watts peak power per channel.
The 40-510-022 operates at very fast speeds, with operate and release times lower than 0.5 milliseconds. This rapid switching speed is critical for the signal routing of high-speed test sequences. At path resistance below 600mΩ, the signal will experience little to no signal attenuation. The 40-510-022’s 3U PXI single-slot form factor provides a readily accessible 68-pin micro-D connector on the front panel for the signal interface connections and requires a +5V power supply, typically drawing 400mA. The 40-510-022 can primarily be used with PXI, CompactPCI, or more mixed PXIe chassis to enable integration to different test systems.
Suitable applications for the 40-510-022 include multiplexing an analog or digital signal, functional test, and precision measurement systems requiring reliable isolation. The screened reed relay option (available as an add-in) will ensure reliable operation switching high-frequency signals (up to 50MHz). The built-in spare reed relays reduce downtime for repairing or replacing defective relays in a typical work environment. The module has many features supported by eBIRST and Switch Path Manager to allow fast and convenient diagnostics by identifying faulty paths or switch devices when replacing modules.
The design can be scaled using daisy-chained 40-510-022 modules to develop larger matrices. Drivers are available for VISA, IVI and kernel interfacing, so it has much compatibility for common programming environments like LabVIEW, MATLAB, and Visual Studio. CE directives followed (safety: EN61010-1; EMC: EN61326-1) guarantee operational suitability of the 40-510-022 in industrial environments. The robust compact design, and low drift thermal design, make the 40-510-022 the ideal solution for applications where precision, speed, and reliability are essential to good electrical signal switching tasks.
