PXI, multi-cell battery simulator modules target automotive and aerospace applications
Pickering Interfaces launched a new family of battery simulator modules, ideal for Electric Vehicle (EV) battery stack emulation in Battery Management Systems (BMS) test applications. The 41-752A (PXI) and 43-752A (PXIe) modules enable direct voltage and current readback either programmatically or using Pickering’s soft panel control. Each cell simulator is highly accurate, specified at ±5 mV from 1 […]
PXI/PXIe multiplexer module optimized for MIL-STD-1553 testing
A new PXI/PXIe multiplexer module is optimized for MIL-STD-1553 testing applications. With a differential bandwidth of 450 MHz—far exceeding the requirements of MIL-STD-1553—the model 40/42-739 is available in single or dual 4:1, 8:1 or 16:1 differential configurations. Using telecommunications-grade electromechanical relays, the 40/42-739 multiplexer has a minimal initial signal path resistance of less than 450 […]
PXI RF and microwave switching modules now available in PXIe format
Pickering Interfaces announced that it now offers all its RF & Microwave PXI products that operate at 3GHz or above in optional PXIe format. This includes the recently released 40/42-785C (PXI / PXIe) range of microwave multiplexers that offer a maximum frequency of 67GHz in both SP4T and SP6T form factors. Pickering has a continuous […]
Integrated monitored multiplexer module indicates status of any activity channel
Pickering Interfaces announced a new range of PXI multiplexer modules (model 40-619) that enable the test engineer to monitor the open status of any channel. The 40-619 performs the same as a typical single-pole, 2A 60W multiplexer but uses secondary relays to determine the multiplexer channel status. Every multiplexer channel is provided with an additional […]
General-purpose PXI matrix features 70-MHz bandwidth, high switching capacity
Available in 16×8, two-pole, or high-density 32×8, two-pole switching configurations, PXI matrix modules offer bandwidths ranging from 35 MHz to 70 MHz depending upon path selected and a VSWR less than 1.5:1 to 85 MHz. The modules are in two-slot PXI (model 40-588) or PXIe (model 42-588) formats and are constructed using telecommunication-grade electromechanical relays […]
PXI switching modules handle heavy ac and dc loads
A new high-power relay PXI module provides the industry’s highest switching capacity in the smallest footprint for a solution based on electromechanical relays. Occupying a compact single PXI slot form factor, the model 40-166 is available with SPST, SPDT or SP4T switching configurations. It uses power relays suitable for switching loads up to 20 A […]
LVDT/RVDT/Resolver simulation module occupies single PXI slot
Pickering Interfaces launched its model 41-670, a single module that can function as an LVDT, RVDT, or resolver simulator. Occupying just one PXI or LXI chassis slot, the programmability of the module means that it minimizes the amount of hardware required. Also, since it sits in a PXI chassis alongside a customer’s other instruments, additional […]
PXI matrix switch module hosts up to 9,216 crosspoints
The 1-A 40-562B BRIC12 PXI modules can hold up to 18 matrix daughtercards with up to 3,168 crosspoints. The 0.5-A 40-558 BRIC12 modules can also hold up to 18 matrix daughtercards, offering up to 9,216 crosspoints, making it the industry’s highest capacity PXI matrix switch module. Like previously available two, four and eight-slot versions, the […]
2.5W, 5W and 10W programmable resistor modules targeting ECU testing
Pickering Interfaces launched a new family of 110 high-accuracy programmable resistor modules with 2.5W, 5W or 10W power handling capability at 100V or as limited by power. Models 40-251/2/3 target applications that require accurate medium-power programmable resistance such as a programmable load for the testing of Electronic Control Units (ECUs) and fuel level sensing. These ECUs are […]
