Description
The PXI-2501 is a versatile multiplexer switch module that comes with part numbers 777696-01 and 185101G-01L. This module is designed to accommodate a variety of testing and measurement needs with its 48 channels. It supports 1-, 2-, or 4-wire configurations, utilizing FET-based technology to ensure efficient signal routing within your PXI systems.
One of the standout features of the PXI-2501 is its maximum scan rate of 15,000 channels per second, making it ideal for applications that require high-speed data acquisition or signal switching. It utilizes a 68-pin male SCSI connector for interfacing, ensuring reliable and secure connections.
The dimensions of the PXI-2501 are 21.6 cm in length, 2.0 cm in height, and 13.0 cm in width, and it weighs approximately 6.1 oz. This compact and lightweight design allows for easy integration into PXI chassis without occupying excessive space or adding significant weight to your setup.
Regarding timing and synchronization capabilities, the module boasts PXI trigger lines with a 70 ns delay and front panel trigger lines with a 500 ns delay. Additionally, it offers an output trigger feature that includes PXI <0…7> trigger lines and front panel at a 1 μs pulse width, providing flexibility in configuring your measurement and testing sequences.
The PXI-2501 supports various configuration modes, including One-wire, Two-wire (default), Three-wire, Four-wire, and a 2-wire 6×4 crosspoint matrix. This flexibility allows users to choose the optimal configuration for their specific application needs. For matrix configurations, the recommended terminal block is the TB-2606, which further enhances the module’s versatility and ease of use.
