## Overview

High-density matrix switch module designed for PXI chassis, featuring ultra-high density crosspoint architecture capable of switching multiple channels with low insertion loss and high isolation. Interfaces via high-speed PXI backplane for seamless integration with test systems. Suitable for automated test applications requiring extensive signal routing, including RF, microwave, and general-purpose testing scenarios. Compatible with standard PXI controllers and software, enabling precise, repeatable switching operations in complex measurement setups.

## Function

The module provides high-density matrix switching for PXI systems. It offers independent single-pole or dual-pole switching configurations with signal routing capabilities. It facilitates the interconnection of multiple signal paths for signal switching and distribution, capable of switching up to 100 MHz signals. The module supports various matrix sizes and topologies, including matrix configurations with multiple relays for signal path selection, and is designed for automated test equipment (ATE) applications.

## Platform

Designed for PXI chassis systems, this ultra-high density dual 16x8 matrix module uses sputtered ruthenium reed relays for reliable 2-pole switching, supporting signal routing in functional ATE and data acquisition applications. It operates at up to 0.5 A and 150 V DC, integrates seamlessly into 3U PXI slots, and can be expanded by daisy-chaining multiple modules for larger matrices within PXI test and measurement platforms. Compatible with Pickering PXI mainframes and other PXI-compliant chassis, it supports high-density matrix configurations requiring low-level analog signal switching with high contact reliability.

## Application

Data acquisition, testing, and simulation applications requiring high-density signal routing and matrix switching configurations.

## Accessories

50-way D-type male connectors for X-connections, 78-way D-type female connectors for Y-connections, 3U PXI chassis required, PXI controller (embedded or remote) needed for operation, compatible with Pickering 40-922 cable assembly for pin access, requires PXI/PXIe slot with 5V supply, 32-bit backplane interface, PCIe/CompactPCI bus, supports Pickering BRIC™ architecture, pairs with 40-9xx series cable kits for terminal connections.

## Interface

PXI backplane, 68-pin VHDCI connectors for switching, SMB connectors for RF, PXI trigger lines.
