Description
The PXIe-2593 is a sophisticated RF Multiplexer Switch Module designed for versatility and performance in a wide range of testing environments. With a part number of 188145D-01L / 780587-93, this module falls under the PXI Switches category, offering precision and reliability for high-demand applications.
This module features an impedance of 50 Ω, ensuring compatibility with a wide range of RF systems. Users can select from multiple configuration options, including an unterminated multiplexer, externally terminated multiplexer, and sparse matrix, providing flexibility for various testing requirements.
Capable of operating across a frequency range from DC to over 500 MHz, the PXIe-2593 is well-suited for a broad spectrum of RF signals. It boasts a 16-channel count, with an external 50 Ω MCX terminator on half of the channels, enhancing its utility in complex setups.
The module’s configuration as a multiplexer is defined as Quad 3×1, which allows for efficient signal routing and maximizes the use of available channels. For ensuring the longevity and reliability of the module, the minimum switch load is specified as 10 μA, 10 mV, with a maximum RF carry power of 10 W up to 500 MHz (per channel).
Designed to be compact and efficient, it requires only a one-slot PXI for installation, making it an excellent choice for systems where space is at a premium. Lastly, the module supports a bandwidth of less than 500 MHz, making it ideally suited for a wide range of signal testing and routing applications.
