PXI RF Multiplexer Switch Module
-
PXI RF Multiplexer Switch Modules are ideal for high-channel-count applications that need to connect measurement or signal generation instruments to various test points on devices or units under test(DUTs or UUTs). PXI RF Multiplexer Switch Modules use a variety of relay types, including electromechanical armature relays, reed relays, field-effect transistor(FET) relays, and solid-state relays, each with their own benefits, allowing you to choose a multiplexer that fits your requirements. To program the switches, you can use the IVI-compliant NI-SWITCH driver software, complete with help documentation, example programs, and a soft front panel application for interactive control of switches. For intelligent management of complex switch systems, NISwitch Executive provides additional software tools to help you design, build, and deploy your switching system.

Low-Density PXI Switch Matrix Modules
-
Our low-density PXI switch matrix modules are a cost-effective solution for applications that require relatively small matrices in the PXI format. These low-density switch matrices can be expanded by connecting together multiple modules, however, we recommend that users look at the higher density switch matrix modules that involve less user configuration. Reed relay versions use high quality sputtered ruthenium relays that exhibit excellent contact performance under low and medium level switching conditions. For general purpose applications that also require higher power handling, the range of electro-mechanical relays provides an ideal solution.

PXI Signal Insertion Switch Module
-
PXI Signal Insertion Switch Modules, also known as fault insertion units (FIUs), provide a set of feedthrough channels, which make the switch transparent to the system when closed. You can open or short these channels to one of two fault buses, allowing you to simulate open or interrupted connections as well as shorts between pins, shorts to battery voltages, and shorts to ground on a per-channel basis. When controlled with the LabVIEW Real-Time Module, the PXI Signal Insertion Switch Module can validate the integrity of control systems including engine control units (ECUs) and full authority digital engine controls (FADECs). You can also use the FIU models for hardware-in-the-loop (HIL) applications and electronic reliability tests.

PXI 18 Bank, 3 Channel, 1 Pole Multiplexer
40-617-021
-
The 40-617 18-Bank, 3-Channel, 1-Pole Multiplexer Module forms part of the System 40 PXI Programmable Switching system. The Module consists of 18 electrically isolated banks of multiplexers controlled by a PXI/PCI interface. Each bank is a 1 to 3 multiplexer and operates with break-before-make action when a new channel is selected. Any Individual multiplexer bank can have a channel set by itself, alternatively, multiple banks can have channels selected simultaneously. Inter-bank linking relays allow multiplexer size to be increased in multiples of 3 by joining the common terminals of adjacent banks. Closing one linking switch produces a 6 channel multiplexer, closing all linking switches produces an 54 channel multiplexer.
