Pickering Interfaces, a supplier of modular signal switching and simulation solutions for use in electronic test and verification, introduced new models in its range of space-saving, versatile optical switches with the launch of the 65-280 (matrix) and 65-281 (multiplexer) plug-ins for the LXI 65-200 platform. The 65-28x plug-ins feature a range of high-density configurations up to 16x16 (matrix) and 32:1 (multiplexer) for a single plug-in. The n...

Pickering Interfaces, a supplier of modular signal switching and simulation solutions for use in electronic test and verification, will be demonstrating its latest product developments at electronica 2022, a trade fair for electronics development and production, in Munich, 15th to 18th November.

Learn how Pickering helped design a PXI-based Hardware-in-the-Loop test system flexible enough to meet the company's new test ranges and capabilities. The system was designed for fully automated operation, performing complete physical function tests overnight unattended. For more specific, granular test, the EV company also specified benchtop systems based around similar products housed in Pickering’s 2-slot LXI/USB chassis (model 60-104-00...

Pickering Interfaces, the specialist supplier of modular signal switching and simulation solutions for use in electronic test and verification, has launched its model 42-926-001 18-slot PXIe chassis, which offers Gen2 performance, is higher spec’d than competing models, with double the PXISA cooling spec per slot and more power to the backplane, and is available on shorter lead-times at a lower cost.

Electronic Control Units (ECUs) are present in many applications today, often used in mission- and safety-critical situations that demand not only high reliability but also high operational predictability. The correct operation of these ECUs is typically verified by using Hardware in the Loop Simulation (HILS), which replaces the sensors that monitor the ECU’s real-world environment by electronic simulators.

Pickering Interfaces has launched new ranges of switching test modules that deliver high performance up to 9kV.
