SPDT Switch Modules support up to 17 off SPDT RF switches.

Press Release Summary:




Based on electro-mechanical relays, Model 40-754 is available in 2 versions with common switch design. High-density version occupies 1 slot of 3U PXI chassis and uses high-density MS-M RF multi-way connector suitable for switching frequencies to 500 MHz. For switching signals to 1.2 GHz, higher frequency version is 2 slots wide and uses SMB connectors. Both are suitable for commercial and military ATE systems.

Pickering Interfaces Introduces New High Density PXI RF SPDT Switches



Clacton on Sea, UK, - Pickering Interfaces is expanding its range of PXI RF switches with the introduction of the 40-754 SPDT switch module.

The 40-754 supports up to 17 off SPDT RF switches in a single module and is available in two different versions based on a common switch design.

The high density version occupies just one slot of a 3U PXI chassis and uses a high density MS-M RF multi-way connector that is suitable for switching frequencies to 500MHz. The higher frequency version is 2 slots wide and uses SMB connectors and suitable for switching signals to 1.2GHz.

The 40-754 is the highest density SPDT switch available in the standard PXI format and is suitable for use in both commercial and military ATE systems. It is an ideal replacement for use in older VXI-based military ATE applications that are being replaced and/or upgraded by PXI/LXI solutions where great numbers of SPDT are used as standard RF switch sub-assemblies.

The two models use a switch design based around high quality electro-mechanical relays and in addition to being supported in any PXI compliant chassis can be supported in Pickering Interfaces Modular LXI Chassis'.
