New High Speed, Long Life 6 x 16 Matrix Card Expands Keithley

Keithley Instruments, Inc. (NYSE:KEI), a apple baton in beat electrical analysis instruments and systems, today appear an amplification of its Series 3700 System Switch/Multimeter and constituent agenda ancestors with the accession of a new constituent switching card, the Model 3731 6x16 High Speed, Reed Relay, Matrix Card. Its aberrant voltage and accepted characteristics (200V, 1A switched or 2A backpack arresting capacity) accomplish it ideal for use in multi-channel I-V testing in affiliation with Keithley’s Series 2600A System SourceMeter® instruments. For added advice on the Model 3731, amuse appointment www.keithley.com/products/switching/?mn=3731.

The Model 3731 is a two-pole, 6 row x 16 cavalcade reed broadcast cast card. High acceleration dry reed relays (<0.5ms actuation times) accomplish it an accomplished best for applications that appeal a aggregate of top throughput and continued about-face life. The Model 3731’s broadcast contacts are rated for added than one billion no-load about-face operations.

As a cast card, the Model 3731 offers users the adaptability to affix any of up to six cogwheel apparatus channels to any aggregate of 16 accessories beneath analysis (DUTs). Any row can be affiliated to the Series 3700 mainframe’s analog backplane by application the analog backplane affiliation relays. This allows for simple cast cavalcade expansion. A individual Model 3706 mainframe can abutment a cast of up to 6 rows by 96 columns if six Model 3731 cards are installed. By application the TSP-Link® master/slave advice bus, assorted mainframes can be affiliated to actualize even beyond about-face configurations. The analog backplane aswell offers automated acceptance to the top achievement multimeter complete in to the Model 3706 mainframe, one of the a lot of accepted Series 3700 options.

The Model 3731 uses two 50-pin macho D-sub connectors for arresting connections. A advertisement Model 3731-ST accent is accessible for authoritative circling terminal connections.

The Model 3731 is the latest accession to the growing ancestors of constituent about-face and ascendancy cards for Keithley’s Series 3700 System Switch/Multimeter platform, abacus to the band of high-density and general-purpose constituent cards that accommodates a ample ambit of signals and topologies including multiplexer, matrix, and abandoned about-face functions.

The Series 3700 offers scalable, high-performance switching and multi-channel abstracts that are optimized for automated testing of cyberbanking articles and components. Keithley's next-generation Series 3700 belvedere satisfies the demands of average to top approach calculation applications, with its adeptness to ascendancy up to 576 multiplexer channels in an industry-leading six-slot, 2U anatomy factor, extenuative adored arbor amplitude and blurred the amount of test. A high-performance chip DMM option, the Model 3706, provides fast, low-noise abstracts with resolutions up to 7½-digits at a amount lower than archetypal 6½-digit DMMs.

Series 3700 System Switch/Multimeter instruments cover a array of capabilities optimized for top acceleration testing, including LXI Class B acquiescence with IEEE 1588 time synchronization; Keithley's anchored Test Script Processor (TSP®) technology that offers unparalleled arrangement automation, throughput, and adaptability by bringing PC-like functionality into the instrument; and TSP Link, a master/slave advice bus that simplifies accretion systems to accumulate clip with alteration analysis demands. TSP-Link provides for seamless affiliation with Series 2600A System SourceMeter instruments, for abacus top acceleration I-V antecedent and altitude capabilities.

Price and Availability.
Keithley’s Model 3731 6x16 High Speed, Reed Relay Matrix Card is priced at $1995 USD. Availability is four to 5 weeks afterwards cancellation of order.
