Description
The Part Number of this PXI Switch is 188821F-01 (778572-32), which is categorized under PXI Switches. The specific model of this switch is PXI-2532, designed to offer a 512-crosspoint matrix switching capability. This model provides versatility through various available configurations/topologies such as 1-wire 16×32, 1-wire 4×128, 1-wire sixteen 2×16, 2-wire 16×16, and 2-wire 4×64, among others.
It has a maximum switching power of 10 W and can handle a maximum switching/carry current per channel of 0.5 A. The bandwidth for a 1-wire row/column configuration is greater than or equal to 30 MHz, and for a 2-wire row/column, it is greater than or equal to 25 MHz. Additionally, it can process input trigger signals from PXI trigger lines 0–7 at 150 ns.
The relay release time is remarkably fast at 0.25 ms, and it boasts a mechanical relay life of 1 x 109 cycles, ensuring longevity and reliability. The simultaneous drive limit supports up to 40 relays (PXI) and 64 relays (PXI Express), showcasing its ability to handle multiple tasks efficiently. This switch is fully compatible with PXIe, fitting perfectly into a one slot, 3U PXI module.
The physical aspects include a weight of 1 lb and dimensions of 21.6 x 2.0 x 13.0 cm, making it
