PXI ARINC 608A Switch Modules
Designed for Routing Signals in Avionics Test Systems
- Pickering's BRIC Based Resource Distribution and Bus Matrix Input Modules with Choice of Configurations
- Source Switching Module Has 12 x 4 to 1 Multiplexers and 44 SPST Relay Contacts Occupying a Single PXI Slot
- Switch/Carry Current of 2Amp
- Maximum Switching Voltage 300VDC/250VAC
- Kernel, VISA and IVI Support For PXI Environments & Kernel and IVI Support For LXI Environments
The matrix module is based on our proven BRIC format and can be specified as a 4 or 8 slot module. The module can be fitted with a combination of Resource Distributor and Bus Matrix Input daughter cards as required by the user. The maximum configuration is six Bus Matrix and two Resource Distributor cards fitted in a BRIC8 module. The daughter cards are inter-linked by the BRIC’s 16-wire analog backplane giving a high level of integration, reducing the cost and complexity of cabling that would be required in implementing an equivalent system using conventional switching modules.

We also offer mating cables and connectors for these modules to ensure speedy and successful system integration. We stand behind our products with a three-year warranty.
The tables below will help you to choose the appropriate module for your application.
