Product
VXI Series
-
The first VXIbus specification was introduced to the test and measurement community in 1987 and was initially developed to provide a card-based instrumentation platform for applications that required high density and high performance. The platform continues to thrive today by leveraging off the original specifications which define the necessary physical (real estate/cooling) and electrical standards for demanding applications and has established itself as the ‘time-tested bus you can trust’ for requirements that must be supported in excess of ten-fifteen years.

PXI Express Data Acquisition Platform
Data Acquisition Module
PXI Express is the fastest data acquisition platform currently available with unmatched bandwidths in excess of 1 GB/s and latencies less than 1 µs. This makes PXI Express-based data acquisition systems ideal for data intensive applications like high-speed digitization, signal-generation, and communication interfaces where high sample rates and channel counts could choke other interfaces.

Multiplexer Switches
SMX-3XXX (Multiplexers)
Multiplexer Module
The VTI SMX-3xxx Series of multiplexers deliver exceptional performance and reliability by implementing extensive signal path shielding and isolation. Available models with software configurable switch subsystems increase flexibility and help control costs by allowing a single module to be used for different testing requirements. Embedded virtual schematic control further simplifies setup and debugging, allowing all relays to be engaged independent of application software.

Platforms
-
The use of switching systems to route instrumentation and stimulus signals to appropriate test points on a unit under test has a very crucial role to play in most electronics test systems. The sharing of test resources, connection of calibration references, load management, and many other functions are all managed by the switching system, the switching system acts as the interface between the unit under test (UUT) and the test equipment.

Power Switches
SMX-2002 (Power)
-
The SMX-2002 is the only switch module in its class with the ability to switch up to 16A. Some applications include: AC line power switching, switching of DC or AC power supplies, control or driving relays for industrial machines (robotics, numerical control machines), automotive engine control, and solenoid switching. Since this module typically switches power to the UUT or interface, the SMX-2002 includes failsafe pins on the front panel which can be configured to open all relays when a failsafe signal is activated. This approach can instantly removes all power to the UUT or interface.

SMX Series
-
The SMX series is an extension of VTI’s award-winning EX1200 series switch family. Designed using the same core philosophy of high-density without compromising on performance, the SMX brings instrument grade switching capability to PXI Express for the first time. Our SMX switch cards encompass everything from power switching to the widest range of microwave switching in the PXI platform. Our drivers and support software provide standard operation in Windows, Linux, and LabView but add additional capability through our award winning GUI.
