Description
The National Instruments PXIe-2529 is a PXI Matrix Switch Module designed for versatile and high-performance switching applications. The part number for this model is 198531C-01L (780587-29), indicating its unique identity in the category of PXI Switches. This module is known for its robustness and flexibility in configuring connections, offering a 128-Crosspoint, 2 Wire matrix. Users have the flexibility to configure the module as either a 4×32 or an 8×16 2-wire matrix, depending on the specific requirements of their test system.
The PXIe-2529 supports both Low- and High-Voltage levels, making it suitable for a wide range of signal types. Its operation is deterministic with hardware triggers, ensuring precise timing and synchronization in test measurements. Moreover, it features multiple-module synchronization with hardware triggers, enabling users to expand their test system with synchronized operations across multiple modules.
With a maximum switching power of 30 W, 37.5 VA, this module can handle significant power levels for its size. It utilizes electromechanical, non-latching, field replaceable relays, offering ease of maintenance and reliability. The DC Path Resistance feature ensures mutual resistance of the high and low signal paths from one row to one column, optimizing signal integrity.
Compatibility with driver software is critical for seamless integration and operation within test systems. The PXIe-2529 is compatible with NI-SWITCH and IVI-compliant driver software, ensuring broad compatibility and ease of use. Additionally, it comes with NI-SWITCH Executive Software, which provides an intuitive interface for configuring, controlling, and deploying the switch module within automated test systems.
