Description
The PXI-2501 is a high-performance PXI Multiplexer Switch Module designed for versatile applications in automated test equipment, data acquisition systems, and more. With its part numbers 777696-01 and 185101G-01L, this module stands out for its robustness and reliability.
It offers a flexible configuration, supporting 1-, 2-, or 4-wire setups across 48 channels, all based on Field-Effect Transistor (FET) technology. This feature ensures efficient signal routing and high-speed operation, with a maximum scan rate of 15,000 channels per second, making it highly suitable for applications requiring rapid scanning of multiple signal paths.
The PXI-2501 utilizes a 68-pin male SCSI connector for interfacing, ensuring a secure and reliable connection. Furthermore, its compact dimensions of 21.6 cm × 2.0 cm × 13.0 cm and a lightweight design at only 6.1 oz make it an ideal choice for systems where space efficiency is critical.
For triggering capabilities, it boasts a PXI trigger line speed of 70 ns and front panel trigger lines speed of 500 ns, complemented by an output trigger pulse width of 1 µs. This ensures precise timing and synchronization among multiple modules within a PXI system.
By default, the module is set in a two-wire configuration, offering simplicity and ease of use for most applications. However, it also supports additional configurations including one-wire, three-wire, four-wire, and a 2-wire 6 by 4 crosspoint matrix. To facilitate matrix mode operations, the recommended terminal block is the TB-2606, which provides an optimized interface for complex wiring schemes.
In summary, the PXI-2501 is a versatile and efficient solution for a wide range of signal switching needs, offering high-speed operation, multiple configuration options
