PXI 8 Slot BRIC 368x4 1-Pole (4 sub-cards)
40-560A-121-368X4
This version of our BRIC is part of a range of high-density PXI matrix modules. These modules are available in 2, 4 or 8 slot PXI sizes to suit all high-performance matrix requirements and are constructed using instrumentation quality reed relays. With this high level of switching density, these PXI matrix modules allow a complete Functional ATE system to be housed in a single 3U PXI chassis. These BRIC matrix modules allow the use of lower cost 8 or 14-slot PXI chassis.

PXI Single 4 to 1 RF MUX MCX 75 Ohm
40-832-101
The 40-832-101 is a 75 Ohm 4 to 1 RF MUX with 1 bank in a single PXI slot. It has been designed to exhibit low insertion loss and VSWR through the use of modern RF relay technology at an affordable cost. Each MUX has been carefully designed to ensure excellent and repeatable RF characteristics to frequencies of 3GHz with each path having a nominally equal insertion loss. The design of the 40-832 minimizes the injection of noise and unwanted signals into the signal path by careful attention to the mechanical and electrical design.

PXI Single 2 x 2 Insert/Bypass Switch FC/PC
40-860-112
Pickering PXI Fiber Optic MEMS Switching cards are available in many high density formats with a choice of 5 different connector styles to suit most applications: FC/APC (for optimal performance), FC/PC and SC/PC for general applications and LC and MU for high density applications. Fiber optic multiplexers create a signal path by redirecting the optical signal into a selected output fiber. This is achieved using Micro-Mechanical Mirrors driven by a highly precise mechanism and activated via an electrical control signal.

PXI High Voltage Amplifiers
Pickering's PXI High Voltage Amplifiers are ideal for increasing the output voltage from other PXI modules, enabling users to easily generate the signal voltages commonly required in applications such as automotive test. Each amplifier can be independently programmed to a gain of 1, 2, 5, 10 or 20, enabling it to be used with modules with low output voltage capability. Inputs and outputs can be provided either on SMB connectors or on a D Type connector to suit the user’s wiring system.

100-Pin Micro-D Connector, Male, Discrete Wire, 2-56 UNC Screwlocks, Metal Shell
C100SMR-1CW-6A
This accessory is designed to allow users to directly terminate a cable to the connector. It is difficult to terminate cable to the 100-Pin SCSI Style Micro-D connector because of the high density and fine pitch. Pickering Interfaces recommends the use of purchased cable assemblies for applications where most or all of the contacts are in use.
