Description
The PXI-2594 is a high-performance PXI Switch that boasts a part number of 778572-94. This device falls under the category of PXI Switches and is specifically designed with a configuration of a 4×1 Multiplexer. It operates over a frequency range from DC to 2.5 GHz, making it suitable for a wide range of applications. The PXI-2594 is characterized by a 50 Ohms impedance, ensuring compatibility with standard test and measurement setups.
With a maximum voltage rating of 30 Vrms and a maximum switching current of 500 mA, this switch is capable of handling significant power levels. The insertion loss is kept low, which is crucial for maintaining signal integrity in test systems. Additionally, the Voltage Standing-Wave Ratio (VSWR) is described as excellent, indicating minimal reflection and a well-matched system. High isolation levels are achieved, ensuring minimal crosstalk between channels.
The PXI-2594 supports relay count tracking, which is a valuable feature for monitoring the health and usage of the switch, potentially extending its operational life. The minimum recognizable trigger pulse width is less than 150ns (with digital filtering disabled), enabling the switch to respond to very short control signals. At the end of its life, the contact resistance remains greater than 1.0 Ohm, indicating durable and reliable operation over time.
