The 40-295 is a Programmable Resistor module
with up to 18 channels of 8 bit resolution resistor
chains in a single 3U PXI module. The flexible
architecture allows the module to also be supplied
as 12 bit, 16 bit or 24 bit resolution versions for
applications requiring finer resolution, greater
resistance range or higher channel count. The
module is ideal for simulating the sensors for
control and management systems under test,
allowing the user to verify system response
in design verification or manufacturing test
applications.
The programmable resistors can be configured as
potentiometers with a wiper connection, model
40-296, simulating the response to external
adjustable components.
Versions with other resistor values can be
provided to meet the requirements for specific
applications. Each resistor chain includes an offset
resistor that can be used to set the minimum
resistance value.
Requests for these versions can be entered on
a simple web based form on our web site here, allowing users a quick and
easy way of obtaining a quotation.
All switches use instrument grade reed relays with
low thermal offset voltage to ensure accurate
operation under all conditions and a long service
