1. Overview

Figure 1: SCXI-1193

The National Instruments SCXI-1193 is a high-density 50 Ω RF relay module. It can be programmatically configured as an unterminated multiplexer, externally terminated multiplexer or dimensionally flexible sparse matrix. Each configuration handles signal frequencies from DC to beyond 500 MHz. This single-slot switch module uses high-density push-on MCX connectors for discrete yet manageable cabling. The NI SCXI-1193 module is designed to integrate with high-frequency instruments such as the NI PXI-5404 frequency generator and the NI PXI-5112 high-speed digitizer.
