New PXI RF and Microwave Switches

Pickering 40 88xA29 August 2018 – Pickering Interfaces will launch at The European Microwave Exhibition, Europe’s largest trade show dedicated to Microwaves and RF which runs from 25th - 27th September 2018 at the Feria de Madrid, Madrid, Spain a new 13-model family of PXI 8GHz solid-state RF switches, including SPDT, SP4T, SP6T, SP8T, SP16T and 4x4 Matrix devices.

Pickering Interfaces’ series 40-88xA high-performance switch family now covers 10MHz to 8GHz in the modular PXI format for easy system integration. All units feature automatic termination of unused switch channels, up to +36dBm input power handling and excellent RF performance characteristics.

Also new from Pickering Interfaces at European Microwave will be the series 60-801 and 60-802 four and six channel LXI Ethernet microwave multiplexers. Packaged in compact 1U and 2U rack-mount form factors, these high-performance microwave switches are available with up to 16 relays in 6GHz, 18GHz, 26.5GHz or 40GHz bandwidths. They feature excellent RF and repeatability characteristics and are simply-controlled via the 1000Base-T Ethernet interface.

Pickering will also be showing their USB/LXI chassis, the 60-104 2-slot chassis and 60-105 4-slot chassis. These chassis offer a small, lightweight form/factor for portable, benchtop and space restrictive applications. Both chassis are controlled remotely via USB3 or 1000-BaseT Ethernet, allowing switching to be sited close to the Device Under Test (DUT), thereby minimizing cable lengths and preserving RF performance. The 60-105 chassis will be shown containing 3 x SP4T and 3 x SP6T 26.5GHz switches, demonstrating the flexibility of this modular chassis when used in conjunction with Pickering’s range of around 250 PXI RF/microwave switch modules.
