Pickering Interfaces new flexible microwave switching family
Pickering Interfaces, a provider of modular signal switching and simulation products for electronic test and verification, will showcase its new 40/42-890 family of modular, flexible microwave switches, bringing highly configurable switching solutions up to 110GHz to the PXI platform at The Gaylord National Convention Centre in National Harbor, Maryland, USA.
AUTOTESTCON is the global meeting place for government and defence procurers and users and the military and aerospace automated test sector to come together to share new technologies and discuss innovative applications in conference sessions, as well as exhibit products and services. Sponsored annually by the IEEE (Institute of Electrical & Electronic Engineers), AUTOTESTCON is dedicated to increasing system availability through advanced test technology.
Ideal for test environments requiring high frequency microwave switching, from radar and communications to consumer electronics and 5G infrastructure, the new 40/42-890 microwave switch family provides highly configurable switching solutions up to 110GHz via the PXI platform, delivering flexibility, versatility, and test system optimisation.
“This new family available in both PXI & PXIe allows RF test engineers to select from and combine a wide range of high-performance microwave relay types to suit their exact application requirements while minimising chassis slot usage by combining multiple relay and connector types on a single module,” said Steve Edwards, Switching Product Manager at Pickering.
In addition to the new PXI flexible microwave switching family, Pickering will also highlight the following signal switching and sensor simulation technologies for electronic test and verification on booth #204 at AUTOTESTCON 2023, in Maryland, USA, from 28—31 August 2023:
- The first modules in a new MEMS-based RF PXI & PXIe multiplexer family
- Flexible LXI microwave switch platform and turnkey services for signal routing subsystems – including a custom 12 x 12 LXI microwave switching matrix demo
- New Microwave Switch Design Tool – a free online tool for configuring flexible PXI or LXI microwave switch products
- Also on show will be a selection from Pickering's broad portfolio of signal switching and simulation, including thermocouple, LVDT/RVDT/resolver, and analog output simulators, along with their PXI, PXIe, and LXI/USB modular chassis, and cables and connectors
