Description
The PXI Switches category includes the PXI-2554, which is distinguished by its part number 778572-54. This model is a 2.5 GHz 75 Ohm 4×1 Multiplexer, designed to provide efficient switching capabilities in a compact form factor. It operates across a frequency range from DC to 2.5 GHz, ensuring versatility for a broad range of applications. The device is characterized by a 75 Ohm impedance, making it suitable for systems that require this specific impedance level.
The PXI-2554 boasts a maximum voltage rating of 30 Vrms and can handle a maximum switching current of 500 mA, providing robust performance for most signal routing needs. Its switch configuration is a 4×1 Multiplexer, and it utilizes Electromechanical Relays to achieve its switching functionality. With 1 bank and 4 channels, this multiplexer allows for flexible signal routing within a system.
The device ensures a minimum pulse width of 150 ns, catering to applications requiring fast switching times. Concerning signal integrity, the maximum insertion loss at 2.5 GHz is less than 1.7 dB, with a common figure being even lower, at less than 1.2 dB. This low insertion loss minimizes signal attenuation, thus preserving the quality of the transmitted signal. Additionally, the VSWR (Voltage Standing Wave Ratio) at 2.5 GHz is less than 1.75, with a typical value being even better, at less than 1.5. This low VSWR indicates efficient signal transmission with minimal reflection.
Lastly, the PXI-2554 is supported by NI-S software, which facilitates easy integration and control within National Instruments environments, ensuring that users can efficiently
