Geotest Produces PXI Programmable Resistor


Irvine, CA (June 14, 2002) - Geotest-Marvin Test Systems, Inc., a global supplier of electronic test equipment for aerospace, semiconductors, telecom, medical, industrial and military applications, today announced the release of a new programmable resistor - the GX1164.

The GX1164 is a PXI multi-channel programmable resistor board that provides the user with four programmable resistor channels. Three of the channels may be programmed from 1 Ohm to 64K Ohm with 1 Ohm resolution and the fourth channel can be programmed from 10 Ohm to 640K Ohm with 10 Ohm resolution. Custom resistor ranges and resolutions are also available. An on-board EEPROM provides for personalized calibration data.

PXI is a state-of-the art, rugged PC platform for measurement and automation. Geotest developed the GX1164 and other PXI products as a result of a growing demand for low-cost, high-performance alternatives to VXI and rack instrumentation. Geotest also offers a wide range of additional PXI instruments including low-cost, high-speed digital I/O, ROM Emulators, switching, and PXI chassis & controllers. Geotest's test equipment allows test engineers to design system configurations specifically for automatic test equipment (ATE) systems, data acquisition, process control applications, and other industrial applications.

Availability. Product shipment for the GX1164 is August 2002.
