Description

The Part Number 777987-01 identifies a specific model of PXI Switches, known as the PXI-2590. This device is categorized as a Radio Frequency (RF) Switch and is designed to function as a 4-Channel, 1.3 GHz bandwidth Multiplexer Switch Module. Its Characteristic Impedance is rated at 50 Ω, ensuring compatibility with a wide range of RF applications.

The Relay Type used in the PXI-2590 is Electromechanical, Non-latching, which offers reliable performance with a typical Operating and Release Time of 15 ms. The contacts are made from Gold-clad silver, a material chosen for its excellent conductivity and resistance to corrosion. This switch is built to last, with a mechanical life cycle rated at 5,000,000 cycles and an electrical life cycle of 100,000 cycles.

When it comes to electrical characteristics, the PXI-2590 can handle a Maximum Switching Voltage of 24 V (channel-to-ground and channel-to-channel), with both Maximum Switching Current and Maximum Carry Current capped at 1 A. It also supports a Maximum Switching Power of 24 Watts. The DC Path Resistance starts at <0.1 Ω initially and increases to >1 Ω at the end of its life cycle, ensuring efficient operation throughout its lifespan.

For precise control, the Trigger Pulse Width is set at a minimum of 70 ns for input and 1 µs for output signals. Connectivity is facilitated through 5 x SMB jacks, making it versatile for various setups.
