  Pickering Interfaces will be showcasing its latest switching modules and chassis at SMT Hybrid Packaging 2015 on 5th to 7th May, 2015 in booth 6-110. It's latest products include additions to Pickering’s PXI 16A switching, PXI isolated power supply and PCI fault insertion solutions.

The SMT Hybrid Packaging 2015 in Nuremberg (May 5-7) will provide a platform for Pickering Interfaces PXI 16A switching, PXI isolated power supply, and PCI fault insertion solutions. New launches in the PCI range include a PCI 2A Fault Insertion Switch – for switching fault conditions for burn-in/endurance testing of Electronic Control Units (ECUs).

A PCI fault insertion card, available as either a one or two slot short PCI card, has been introduced by Pickering Interfaces. The 50-190 card features 75, 64 or 36 fault insertion channels and one or two fault insertion busses, each of which can select from three fault sources. The PCI fault insertion card also has the ability to introduce open circuit paths, shorts between paths or shorts to fault connections such as battery or ground, as well ...

Pickering Interfaces is lowering the cost of ownership of switching systems with the introduction of its eBIRST Switching System Test Tools. These diagnostic test tools, designed specifically for Pickering Interfaces PXI, PCI or LXI (Ethernet) products, simplify switching system fault finding by quickly testing the system and identifying the faulty relays.

Pickering Interfaces will showcase its catalogue of PXI and Ethernet LXI switching solutions at Amper, in Hall 5, Booth 3.18 from 24th to 27th March 2015. These products include Pickering’s Ethernet LXI, PXI, Programmable Resistors, Microwave Multiplexer and PCI Ranges.

Following the success of its 16A uncommitted relay modules, Pickering Interfaces has introduced two 16A PXI switching modules. The PXI power multiplexer module is available in seven configurations ranging from 4-off 2:1 multiplexers to 1-off 16:1 multiplexer. The PXI power matrix module is available in four configurations with matrix sizes of 8x2 and 4x4 and the ability to expand the matrix size with the Y-Axis loop-through connections.

PCI and PXI programmable resistor and relay cards, which feature 12 resistor channel options, a resolution of 0.25-2Ω and channel counts of either two or four, have been released by Pickering Interfaces. To extend the resistance range within a test system, the 50-294 PCI card and the 40-294 PXI card are optionally available with eight SPST relays. 

Designed to support DMMs or source meters which require the closure of up to 1024 crosspoint relays, the 60-553 LXI switching matrix has been introduced by Pickering Interfaces. Featuring a dual bus design, the 1024x4, 1-pole, 1U device can be divided into two smaller independent matrices, such as 512x4. 

Pickering Interfaces will showcase its broad catalog of PXI and Ethernet LXI switching solutions at DesignCon, booth 529, 28th to 29th January in Santa Clara, CA. These products include Pickering’s PXI Fault Insertion, Programmable Resistors, RF Matrices, Microwave Multiplexers and LXI ranges. Listed below is a selection of the products that will be showcased:

Pickering Interfaces has added two PXI high power solid-state switch modules to its range of PXI switching solutions. The PXI 25A Solid State SPST Switch (40-184) offers 3 or 6-off SPST solid-state switches capable of handling 25A signals at up to 100V, whilst the PXI 1.5A Solid State SPST Switch (40-185) offers 3 or 6-off SPST solid-state switches able to handle 1.5A at up to 400V.
