Description
The PXI Switches category includes the model PXIe-2526, which is specified by the part numbers 780587-26, 155043A-01L. This model boasts a unique topology, offering configurations such as a 1-wire 158 x 1 and a 2-wire 79 x 1 Multiplexer, providing versatile connection options for various testing scenarios.
At the initial stage, the DC path resistance is impressively low, at less than 0.5 Ohms, ensuring minimal signal loss. Towards the end of its life, the resistance increases but remains at a satisfactory level of greater than or equal to 1.5 Ohms. In terms of signal integrity, the thermal EMF is maintained at less than 10 micro-volts, which is beneficial for maintaining accuracy in measurements.
The bandwidth capability of the PXIe-2526 is noteworthy, with a performance less than or equal to 10 MHz at -3 dB, suitable for a broad range of applications. The typical relay operation time is swift, at just 1 millisecond, enabling rapid switching operations. Moreover, it can simultaneously drive up to 82 relays, showcasing its robust performance capabilities.
Despite its powerful specifications, the unit remains relatively lightweight at 230 grams, making it an efficient choice in terms of space and weight for system integrators. It operates effectively within a temperature range of 0 to 55 degrees Celsius and can withstand relative humidity levels from 10% to 90%, ensuring reliability in various environmental conditions. Additionally, it offers protection against shock and vibrations, further enhancing its durability and lifespan in demanding operational contexts.
