PXI Standard Programmable Resistor Modules

Pickering's PXI Standard Programmable Resistor Modules include fully programmable resistor and potentiometer modules for applications such as sensor emulation that require fine adjustment with a resolution down to 0.25 Ohm.

  • Includes Programmable Resistors and Potentiometers
  • Resolutions Down to 0.25Ω and Resistance Range from 1Ω to 16MΩ
  • Suitable for Sensor Emulation Applications
  • Programmable by Resistance Calls or Controlling Individual Resistor Bits
  • Visa and Kernal Support for PXI Environments
  • Supported by PXI and LXI Chassis

All of our Programmable Resistor Modules can easily be formed to make Programmable Potentiometers by connecting two channels in series, using the unconnected terminals as the A and B connections and the link between the two channels as the wiper connection. For applications with more demanding accuracy and resolution requirements, consider our Precision Programmable Resistor Modules.

We also offer mating cables and connectors for these modules to ensure speedy and successful system integration.
