Description
The National Instruments PXI-2567 PXI Relay Driver Module, with part number 778572-67, is a highly sophisticated component designed for advanced applications that require reliable switching capabilities. This device falls under the category of PXI Switches and is specifically engineered to meet the rigorous demands of automated test equipment.
One of the standout features of the PXI-2567 is its 64-Channel configuration, which provides extensive connectivity options for complex testing scenarios. This module is designed with integrated 5 V and 12 V power supplies, complete with fuses, ensuring a stable and secure power distribution for all connected devices.
Ensuring the safety and longevity of the module and connected devices, the PXI-2567 incorporates comprehensive protection circuitry. This includes overvoltage, over-current, and over-temperature protection for each channel, with protection settings capped at 80 V (max), 1.5 A (min), and 150 °C (max) respectively. Such precautions significantly reduce the risks of damage due to unexpected electrical anomalies.
The module boasts a maximum operating speed of 150 operations per second, facilitating efficient and rapid testing procedures. Connectivity is facilitated through a 78-pin D-SUB I/O connector, ensuring a secure and reliable physical interface for signal transmission.
Flexibility in operation is another key aspect of the PXI-2567, with triggering options available from the front panel or through PXI trigger lines 0–7. This module is capable of recognizing a minimum input trigger signal with a 150 ns pulse width, and can even recognize signals of less than 150 ns if digital filtering is disabled, showcasing its sensitivity and adaptability in various testing environments.
Designed with efficiency in mind, the module’s power requirement is optimized for its functionality, requiring 8 W at 5 V, 0.5 W at 3.3 V, and 6 W at 12 V. Its form factor is a 3U, one slot, PXI module, ensuring it fits seamlessly into standard PXI chassis
