Pickering Interfaces intros high density LXI 2 pole matrices

CLACTON ON SEA, UK: Pickering Interfaces is expanding its range of customer focused LXI switch matrices with the introduction of the 60-555 high density 512x8 2-pole EMR (electromechanical relay) Matrix and 60-556 high density 512x4 2-pole EMR Matrix.

The 60-555 and 60-556 provide a compact solution for applications requiring 8 Y and 4Y axis connections and 2 pole switching. The new LXI matrices occupy just 1U of a rack height in a test system.

With a 2A current rating and a voltage rating 300Vdc/250VAC the matrix is capable of handling the most commonly encountered signals in ATE systems. The X axis dimension can be selected from a range of 6 versions offering sizes from, 192 to 512 for each model.

The 60-555/6 user connections are provided by 160 pin DIN41612 plugs which are fully supported by the range of Pickering Interfaces cable and connector accessories, further simplifying customer integration requirements.

The product expands the range of 60-550 series matrices from Pickering Interfaces that feature x4 to x64 Y axis dimensions by adding 2 pole switching options to the range.
