Description
The Part Number 777987-01 refers to a PXI Switch, specifically the PXI-2590 model. This model is a Radio Frequency (RF) Switch, designed to operate within a bandwidth of 1.3 GHz. It features a 4-Channel Multiplexer, making it versatile for various RF switching needs. The switch operates with a characteristic impedance of 50 Ω, ensuring compatibility with standard RF systems.
The relay type used in the PXI-2590 is electromechanical, non-latching, providing reliable performance with an operating/release time of 15 ms typical. This model uses gold-clad silver for the contact material, which contributes to its durability and reliability, supporting up to 5,000,000 mechanical cycles and 100,000 electrical cycles. It is capable of handling a maximum switching voltage of 24 V (channel-to-ground and channel-to-channel), a maximum switching current of 1 A, and a maximum carry current of 1 A. Additionally, the switch can manage a maximum switching power of 24 Watts.
The DC path resistance of the PXI-2590 varies from < 0.1 Ω (initial) to > 1 Ω (end of life), indicating its efficiency and longevity. It also features a trigger pulse width (min) of 70 ns and can output a trigger signal of 1 µs through PXI trigger lines 0 – 7, providing flexibility in system integration. For connectivity, it includes 5 x SMB jacks as I/O connectors, ensuring wide
