PXI Single 8 to 1 RF MUX MCX 75 Ohm
40-834-101
RF Multiplexer
The 40-834-101 is a 75 Ohm 8 to 1 RF MUX with 2 banks 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 40-834 minimizes the injection of noise and unwanted signals into the signal path by careful attention to the mechanical and electrical design.

PXI Multiplexer Switch Module
Switch Module
PXI 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 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.

PXI Solid-State SPST Switch, 6-Channel 25A 100V
40-184-001
SPST Switch
This range of PXI high power switches support 6-off high current SPST switches into two PXI slots or 3-off high current SPST switches into one PXI slot. Each SPST switch uses a fully isolated solid-state relay which has been designed to offer fast operation under hot switching conditions and high inrush current with no operational life degradation. Each PXI solid-state SPST switch can support 25A of continuous current and switch up to 100V signals. The switch can sustain inrush currents of up to 90A. AC or DC signals can be switched since the switch is polarity insensitive.

PXI Signal Insertion Switch Module
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.

RF Signal Generator
PXIe, 3.3 GHz, PXI RF Analog Signal Generator—The PXIe‑5651 features continuous-wave generation capabilities with FM, 2‑FSK, or OOK modulation. It uses direct digital synthesis (DDS) for high-resolution frequency hopping or phase-continuous sweeping for fixture and device characterization applications. The PXIe‑5651 is ideal for clocking nonstandard sample rates, such as WCDMA signals at baseband or intermediate frequency (IF). With these versatile signal generators, you can perform analog and digital modulation through the onboard DDS circuit, which gives you frequency modulation and frequency-shift keying for applications such as bit error rate test, antenna testing, or even keyless entry. You can also perform amplitude modulation using on-off keying.
