New BRIC ultra-high-density PXI switching matrix modules from Pickering Interfaces


Pickering Interfaces, a leading provider of modular signal switching and simulation products for electronic test and verification, is consistently working to increase the performance and decrease the size of its modules and systems, in-line with the requirements of the demanding industries it serves. The company will demonstrate their latest new product developments at Productronica 2019, the World’s leading trade fair for electronics development and production, in Munich (November 12-15th).

In Hall A1, Booth 452, the company will debut a new member of its BRIC ultra-high-density PXI matrix module family, the 0.5A 40-558 which delivers up to 6,144 crosspoints and has a switching density 39% higher than competing devices, allowing a complete functional ATE system to be housed in a single 3U PXI chassis. The integrated BRIC design saves on valuable chassis slots compared to standard PXI matrix modules.

This unit follows on from the model 40-559 – launched at the show last year – a robust 1A/20W module with up to 4,096 crosspoints. Other BRIC modules will also be on the booth, showing the wide variety of solutions that are available as standard. Comments CEO Keith Moore: “With Pickering, we like to offer customers exactly what they need, rather than forcing them to over-spec or compromise.”

In partnership with VX Instruments of Germany who will be on Hall A1 Booth 370, Pickering will again be demoing VX Instruments’ PXM7820 high-speed multi-measurement device operating in an LXI Ethernet environment through our 4-Slot USB/LXI Modular Chassis (model 60-105).  The PXM7820 features a 16-bit DMM, 16-bit digitizer, counter/timer, and a high voltage input circuitry.  The addition of the PXM7820 allows all of Pickering’s LXI/USB Modular chassis to perform measurements as well as controlling switching in a single chassis.
