Description
The Part Number 776572-29 refers to a high-quality PXI Switch under the category of SCXI-1129. This particular model, SCXI-1129, is described as a CCA, SCXI-1129 BASE, Matrix/Multiplexer Switch Module, designed to facilitate complex switching arrangements in testing and measurement setups.
The Matrix Configuration of this switch module is highly versatile, allowing for a maximum setup of a 4 x 64, 2-wire switch matrix. Additionally, it can function as four separate 4 x 16, two 4 x 32, or two 8 x 16, 2-wire matrixes, providing flexibility for various testing scenarios. The Maximum Scan Rate achievable with this module is 100 crosspoints per second, ensuring efficient performance in rapid switching applications.
One of the critical specifications of this switch module is its Thermal Offset, which is less than 9 µV, ensuring minimal signal distortion due to thermal variations. The module supports various Relay Types, including electromechanical, latching, and nonlatching, thereby accommodating a wide range of switching needs.
Compatible Terminal Blocks for this module include SCXI-1336, SCXI-1333, SCXI-1335, SCXI-1337, SCXI-1334, and SCXI-1339, providing users with multiple options for connectivity. Software Compatibility is extensive, with support for NI-SWITCH, NI-DMM, and programmability via LabVIEW, Measurements Studio, Visual Basic, allowing for easy integration into existing systems.
The physical dimensions of the SCXI-1129 are noted as 7.8 x 1.2 x 6.8 inches, and it weighs 1 lb., making it compact and lightweight for easy installation in various setups. Despite its Obsolete Status, as announced by National Instruments, it remains available for purchase and repairs via Apex Waves, ensuring continued support for users of this sophisticated switch module.
