Description
The PXI Switches category includes the PXI-2532, which is identified by its part number 190338A-01 (778572-32). This model is notable for its 512-crosspoint matrix size, offering a significant degree of flexibility for various configurations and setups.
When it comes to performance, the PXI-2532 is designed to handle a maximum switching power of 10 W, with the ability to carry a maximum switching/carry current of 0.5 A per channel. Its bandwidth capabilities are impressive, supporting ≥30 MHz in 1-wire configurations and ≥25 MHz in 2-wire configurations, ensuring efficient signal processing across a wide range of frequencies.
Furthermore, this model is equipped to handle PXI trigger lines 0–7 for input trigger signals, with a trigger response time of 150 ns, which can be reduced to less than 150 ns with digital filtering disabled. The relay release time is also notably quick at 0.25 ms, enhancing the switch’s overall responsiveness.
The mechanical relay life of the PXI-2532 is rated at 1 × 109 cycles, indicating its durability and reliability for long-term use. It can simultaneously drive up to 40 relays in a PXI chassis and up to 64 relays in a PXI Express chassis, demonstrating its adaptability in different system configurations. Its compatibility with PXIe and a 3U PXI slot further adds to its versatility. Despite its robust capabilities, the PXI-2532 maintains a lightweight design, weighing in at just 1 lb.
