Pickering 40-533A-022 Ultra High Density Matrix Module
The Pickering 40-533A-022 is a 2-pole ultra-high-density reed relay matrix module for high-precision signal switching in automated test and data acquisition systems. It is formed as a single 64x4 matrix, with a total of 256 crosspoints, which are made with sputtered ruthenium reed relays that provide stable contact resistance and long life (greater than 1 billion cycles) when switching the low power switching needs. It can operate at up to 150 VDC or 100 VAC, with a maximum current of 0.5 A and switching power of up to 10 W. The 40-533A-022 is designed to provide reliable switching performance in a challenging environment. The 40-533A-022 can switch to a maximum switching frequency of 100 Hz (1 ms (typical 0.5 ms) switching delay), which allows for burst-type switching of signals to accommodate high throughput functional ATE applications.
Signals are routed to the 40-533A-022 through a fixed 200-pin connector that is mounted to the front-panel, the connector was originally based on the Molex LFH series connector but has been replaced with a Pickering designed and manufactured connector, which is backwards compatible with Molex connectors. The 40-533A-022 is designed to be mounted in a PXI, CompactPCI or LXI chassis in a single 3U chassis slot while weighing just 420 g. For applications requiring larger matrices, multiple modules can be daisy-chained together to create larger matrices; however, it is recommended to use Pickering's BRIC solutions for larger-scale architectures.
The 40-533A-022 supports integration with industrial automation systems, with drivers available for Windows, Linux and real-time operating systems, and compatibility with programming environments such as LabVIEW, Python, C#, and MATLAB. Pickering manufactures a PC application called Switch Path Manager that makes it easy to manage switching paths by automating the selection of the switching paths, which can simplify the application programming. The eBIRST diagnostic tool makes it easy to detect faults in the system and can test relays, as well as indicate when a failure in a relay has occurred and can show this graphically, which can reduce downtime.
The 40-533A-022 is designed for functional test systems that may require very high density switching, but at the same time also allow for modular and scalable applications in mind.
